ABSTRACT:
A watering device for a tree stand has a reservoir with an upper opening. A cover having a port is mounted on the upper opening of the reservoir. The cover encloses closes the reservoir. A shelf is mounted in the reservoir below the cover and is shaped to allow water to bypass the shelf. A length of tube communicating with the reservoir supplies water to the reservoir below the shelf. A valve is reciprocatively mounted between the shelf and the cover for controlling water flow through the port. A float is attached atop the valve means and above the cover for floating and operating the valve means to seal the port of the cover. Thus, water flowing out of the reservoir and into the tree stand is regulated by the floating and the operation of the valve.
