2. Septal nectaryA septal nectary is nectar-producing tissue that is found in the wall of a plant ovary. Septal nectaries function as a way of attracting pollinators. Plants that rely on insects, birds, or bats for pollination often have septal nectaries. Aside from attracting pollinators, septal nectaries have also been known to attract "plant protectors. " Some plants, like Ruellia radicans, have nectaries that continue to secrete pollen even after the petals have been shed.
