Best Answer

Sugar-rich liquid produced in glands called nectares is what flower nectar is. It may be found within the flower in order to attract pollinators. But nectar also may be produced in glands outside the flower in order to attract non-pollinators into defensive arrangements whereby the entire plant is protected against unwanted predation.
