No, flowers do not do well in sugar and water, but yes, they survive the "drink." A light sprinkling of sugar in water generally does flowering plants no harm even though it may be enough to attract unwelcome foragers such as sugar-loving ants. Plants tend to prefer their own sugar, which results from Mother Nature's photosynthetic processes.
