Hummingbirds are primarily attracted to flowers based on their vibrant colors and the availability of nectar, rather than scent. While some flowers do emit fragrances to attract pollinators, many hummingbird-pollinated flowers are odorless. Therefore, a lack of scent would not necessarily deter a hummingbird, as their primary motivation is the visual appeal and nectar reward.

Yes, a flower's lack of scent can turn away a hummingbird, as these birds are often attracted to fragrant flowers.
