We show that correlation functions for branched polymers correspond to thosefor $\phi^3$ theory with a single mass insertion, not those for the $\phi^3$theory themselves, as has been widely believed. In particular, the two-pointfunction behaves as 1/p^4, not as 1/p^2. This behavior is consistent with thefact that the Hausdorff dimension of the branched polymer is four
