It depends.

Flowers blossom to attract insects in exchange for nectar. You might call this good advertisement.

But there are plants who "advertise" like flowers who have nectar, but really don't. So they trick the insects into visiting them to spread their pollen, but they do notngive nectqr in return.



Those evil flowers often still look beautiful to humans, though.
