☛Pollen:-
➜Pollen is the male fertilizing agent of flowering plants, trees, grasses and weeds. Pollen from plants with bright flowers, such as roses, usually do not trigger allergies.
☛Nectar:-
➜Nectar is a sugar-rich liquid produced by plants in glands called nectaries or nectarines, either within the flowers with which it attracts pollinating animals, or by extrafloral nectaries, which provide a nutrient source to animal mutualists, which in turn provide herbivore protection.

☛Nectar and pollen are essential food sources for pollinators such as bees, butterflies and hoverflies. Nectar is essentially sugar water – insects drink it and the sugar gives them the energy to fly to find a mate or to start a nest.Pollen is protein. Bees gather pollen to feed their young, which they need to grow.
