Flowers Pollinated By Wind

Most of the conifers and angiosperms exhibit wind pollination. Such flowers do not produce nectar and fragrance. In the flowers pollinated by the wind, the microsporangia hang out of the flower. As the wind blows, the light-weight pollen blows with it. The pollen gets accumulated on the feathery stigma of the flower. These flowers appear even before the leaves when the spring commences. Few examples of such flowers include:

Rice

Corn

Oats

Maize

Barley

Papaya
