There are many flowers that wilt and die shortly after the sex act
is accomplished. Many orchids do this. The flowers may be happier,
but it is short-lived.  Don't be too sad though, many other flowers
will wilt and die quickly even if they don't get any. I have tried
to get a response from flowers by showing them photographs of
pistils or stigmas, but results have been inconclusive, the
sunflowers appeared to turn their heads toward the images, but by
morning seemed to ignore them. Violets actually shrunk away from
explicit images.

As far as the plant is concerned, flowers _are_ sex.

They certainly can. Flowers of the genus Asclepias often have horns
on them.
