Solution

Wind pollinated flowers are colourless as they do not have to be attractive to attract pollinating insects towards themselves. Similarly they do not have to be food for any insects or pollinators like bees hence they do not produce nectar. Rather they are light and have special features like wings to be easily carried by the wind.
