ABSTRACT:
A Christmas tree stand vertically mounts a cylindrical tube from the bottom of a water container and so that it extends from the top thereof. An inflatable cylindrical bladder is mounted lengthwise to the inside of the tube. The stand is mounted on the trunk of a horizontal tree by inserting its bladder thereon and then inflating the bladder to tightly engage the trunk and center on it. The tree is then uprighted. Leveling screws in the bottom of the stand permit compensating for unlevel room floors and crooked trunks. A container for water about the tube adds ballast and provides life sustaining liquid to the tree trunk through holes in the bottom of the cylinder and in an upwardly concave plate in the bottom of the cylinder supporting the trunk in spaced relation to the container floor.
