Nectar
Nectar is a sweet liquid produced by flowering plants, primarily to attract pollinators like bees and hummingbirds. It is rich in sugars, mainly fructose and glucose, and serves as a food source for these creatures, aiding in the process of pollination.
In addition to its role in nature, nectar is also harvested by beekeepers to produce honey. The composition of nectar can vary significantly between different plant species, influencing the flavor and color of the honey produced. Nectar plays a crucial role in the ecosystem by supporting both plant reproduction and the diets of various animals.
