ABSTRACT:
An apparatus is provided for capturing overflow from hanging plant containers, which is comprised of a funnel member for being positioned below the plant container and a cup member centrally disposed in the funnel member. The cup member has a plurality of recesses in a bottom portion thereof for channeling matter received by the funnel member through a bottom opening in the funnel member. A flexible tube fits over the bottom opening to carry the material to a sink or container. A plurality of cords are attached to the funnel member for suspending the apparatus from the hanging plant container. A decorative article, such as a tassel, hanging below the plant is received within the cup member, to protect the article from the plant overflow. The apparatus is easily moved from plant to plant and allows a user to water hanging plants without worrying about dirty water overflow.
