Long tube-like flowers are commonly referred to as "tubular flowers." These flowers are often adapted for pollination by specific insects, particularly hummingbirds, which can access the nectar at the base of the tube. Examples of plants with tubular flowers include Trumpet vine, honeysuckle, and certain types of orchids. Their shape often helps to limit access to nectar, ensuring that only certain pollinators can reach it.
