Wind-pollinated flowers have many key differences from insect-pollinated ones. Since they don't need to attract insects, wind-pollinated flowers tend to have smaller petals, are odorless, are less colorful, and don't have nectar. Examples are ragweed, corn and wheat.

No, a rose it not wind pollinated. Roses are pollinated by bees. A bee will collect nectar in the "pockets" on *her legs and as she flies some of the pollen may fall out there for creating a new flower

* all worker bees (one that collects pollen and nectar) are female

It can, but it's very unlikely. Insect-pollinated flowers produce far less pollen because there's a greater chance it will be dispersed correctly by insects instead of randomly by wind. Wind-pollinated plants produce far more because so little of it will land in the right spot.

Why do wind-pollinated plant species generally produce more pollen than animal pollinated species?

They will most likely have less because they are not the kind of flower that really sticks out because of certain coloring, so that's also why they can depend on wing more than animals to pollinate.

Is a hibiscus an insect pollinated flower or a wind pollinated flower?

Hibiscus is actually pollinated by hummingbirds! Red flowers always most likely are because birds can see red better than insects (they're better at the blue and purple part of the spectrum). Also, the pollen is far away from the nectar. If a hummingbird puts its tongue into the flower, the pollen will be deposited on its back. An insect would never touch the pollen when crawling into the flower to the nectar. ^^
