ABSTRACT:
A self watering tray apparatus for supporting a pot having a plant therein includes a tray for holding a fluid having a bottom and a side wall, a support being retained between the bottom and side wall of the tray, and a plug-in leg or wick filled with a fluid absorbing material such as soil or wick. The plug-in leg wicks up the fluid to the soil whenever the fluid is needed by the plant and drains the fluid down to the tray whenever the fluid in the pot is excessive to the plant.
