1 answer
A plant characteristic that would attract flies is having a strong odor or smell. Many flowering plants release a scent to attract pollinators, and some plants produce odors similar to decaying matter or rotting fruit to attract flies for pollination. Additionally, some plants produce nectar or secrete sap that can serve as a food source for flies, further attracting them.
