A type of pollination that relies on the wind to carry the pollen. Most grasses and many trees have anemophilous flowers, which lack scent and nectar, and have small or nonexistent petals. Male and female flowers are usually separate, as with the catkins of many trees, which bloom before the trees come into leaf.
