Shape is a factor, but less of a factor than coloration, reflection of ultraviolet waves and odor.
Brightly colored petals: Flowers have evolved to have vibrant colors that attract pollinators such as bees, butterflies, and birds. Sweet scent: Flowers produce nectar with a sweet fragrance that attracts insects like bees and butterflies. Nectar guides: Some flowers have markings that guide pollinators toward the nectar source, making it easier for them to locate and pollinate the flower.
The orchid flower is known for resembling an insect in shape and color, particularly the bee orchid (Ophrys apifera). The petals and sepals of this flower mimic the appearance of a bee to attract pollinators.
The petals of the flower attract insects both through their color and often through their scent. The scent of flowers may be used to attract insects for pollination or to repel certain insects.
Brightly colored flowers have evolved to attract pollinators such as bees, butterflies, and birds. These colors serve as visual signals to guide pollinators toward the flowers, which increases the likelihood of successful pollination and reproduction for the plant. Additionally, the colors may also indicate the presence of rewards like nectar, encouraging pollinators to visit.
They have nectar secreting glands on the base of the leaf. They secret salt and sugar, and make honey.

Flower petals modify its color, shape, sensitivity, scent, and pattern to attract pollinators. The petal shapes also closely adapt to the pollinator's feeding and landing preferences.

A collection of petals is called a "corolla." The corolla is the collective term for all the petals of a flower, which often serve to attract pollinators with their color and shape. In botanical terms, the corolla is part of the flower structure, located between the sepals and the reproductive organs.
The large and colorful petals of the hibiscus plant help attract pollinators such as bees and hummingbirds. These petals serve as a visual cue to these pollinators, guiding them towards the flower to aid in pollination. The bright colors and patterns also help the plant stand out amidst its surroundings, increasing its chances of being noticed by potential pollinators.
