BB: Bumble Bee CB: Carpenter Bee HB: Honey Bee OBK: Other Bee Known OBU: Other Bee Unknown H: Humming Bird B/M: Butterfly or Moth W: Wasp F: Fly B: Beetle Tot Poll: Total Pollinators fkgardenid: used to uniquely identify each garden. Plant Diversity: total number of plants present in a specific garden fkgardenid Plant Diversity BB CB HB OBK OBU H B/M W F B Tot Poll

Figure 3. The following chart represents the total number of plant species and total number of pollinators for each garden. The same information is present in Table 3 above.

8 Figure 3. The following chart represents the total number of plant species and total number of pollinators for each garden. The same information is present in Table 3 above. The Pearson s product-moment correlation between Plant Diversity and Tot Poll is We carry out a statistical hypothesis test of HH 00 against HH 55 : HH 00 : TThee ttttttee cccctttteeccccttcccccc ccii eeeettcccc ttcc 0 vs. HH 55 : TThee ttttttee cccctttteeccccttcccccc ccii ggtteecctteett tthcccc 0, which yields a p-value of (< 0.05). Thus, we can reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient statistical evidence at the αα = 0.05 level to conclude that there is a significant linear relationship between the total plant species diversity and total pollinators in each garden.
