Three flowers that are wind-pollinated include grass flowers, corn (maize) flowers, and certain species of oak trees. These plants typically have small, inconspicuous flowers and produce large amounts of lightweight pollen that can be easily carried by the wind. This adaptation allows them to efficiently reach other flowers for fertilization without relying on pollinators like bees or butterflies.
Wind-pollinated flowers tend to be less showy and colorful compared to insect-pollinated flowers which are often brightly colored and fragrant to attract insects. However, the structure of wind-pollinated flowers is specialized for efficient wind dispersal of pollen, which is important for their reproduction. So, while they may not be as visually attractive to us, they are still well-adapted for their method of pollination.
Answer 1: If a bloom has large petals and sepals, it's much harder to pollinate the flower. They would just get in the way. Answer 2: Petals and sepals are used to attract pollinators and give them a place to land. Wind pollinated plants don't need to attract pollinators or provide landing space for them. Thus, there is no use for large sepals and petals. .
Silver Birch are wind pollinated.
Wind-pollinated plants do not need colorful flowers as they are not pollinated by animals, insects or birds. Since wind-pollinated plants do not need colorful flowers, they might as well put their energy into making their pollen lighter, or more of it.

Lemon seed is not pollinated. The lemon tree has flowers, which are pollinated by insects and wind. The pollinated flowers grow into lemons, which contain seeds.
They are most likely pollinated by wind or pollinators, such as bees.
by the wind moving towards it
Grasses and grains are wind-pollinated, and plants are seed pollinated. There is a difference.
Nectar is produced by flowers to attract insects, bats or birds that will help to carry its pollen to other plants (and bring fresh pollen to it). If a plant is pollinated in the wind, then it doesn't need to spend the energy to make nectar.
