Detailed Solution

Both wind and water pollinated flowers are not very colourful and do not produce nectar. This is because colour is to attract biotic pollinators and nectar acts as a floral reward so that the pollinators keep visiting the plant and help in pollination. Abiotic agents neither needs to be attracted nor need any floral reward.
