### Hierarchical Clustering of the Honey Samples  
The agglomerative hierarchical clustering was carried out to classify the honey samples according to the results of the studied parameters. Moreover, the classification according to the results of the studied parameters is compared to the classification of the floral and geographical origins (Figure 3). The agglomerative clustering showed that there were two second level clusters. The first one clustered five samples containing two _Acacia_ from the Asir region, one _Acacia_ honey from Jazan, one polyfloral honey from Jazan and one _Ziziplus_ honey from Asir region. The first cluster of level 2 grouped _Acacia_ and polyfloral honey samples from the Asir and Jazan regions. However, one _zizplus_ honey sample from the Asir region was classified with the _Acacia_ honey samples, which may be due to the presence of _Acacia_ pollens in the \begin{table}

Table 2: The significant effects of the floral and geographical origins on the studied parameters. honey. The second cluster of level one contained eleven honey samples containing four _Acacia_ from Asir region, one _Acacia_ from Jazan region, two polyiforal from Asir region and four polyiforal from Jazan region. The second cluster of level 2 classified some _Acacia_ and polyiforal honey samples irrespective of their geographical origin. There is a presence of polyiforal honey samples with the _Acacia_ honey samples because they contain _Acacia_ pollens. The conclusion of level 2 classification is that the studied parameters can be used for the prediction of the floral origin (Figure 3).
