The evolution of floral traits in animal-pollinated plants involves the interaction between flowers as signal senders and pollinators as signal receivers. Flower colors are very diverse, effect pollinator attraction and flower foraging behavior, and are hypothesized to be shaped through pollinator-mediated selection.

Flower color evolution occurs primarily through genetic mutations that alter the production of pigments like anthocyanins, leading to variations in color depending on the type and amount of pigment produced, which is controlled by specific genes; these changes can be driven by natural selection based on pollinator preference, resulting in diverse flower colors across species.
