Abstract (en)

[origin: US5014461A] A stand for holding plants and trees comprises a holder including an upright tubular portion adapted to hold a lower end of a tree trunk, and at least three support legs joined to the tubular portion. The legs are arranged to space a lower end of the tubular portion above a support surface. A water container is positioned beneath the tubular portion. Upper and lower sets of circumferentially spaced fastening screws are disposed in vertically spaced upper and lower planes, respectively, such that radially inner ends of the screws are able to support and align a lower end of a tree trunk. Each fastening screw is disposed approximately midway between two circumferentially adjacent ones of the legs, as the stand is viewed from above.
