ABSTRACT:
A tree stand taking the form of a foldable sheet material housing having a planar base and a plurality of evenly spaced side wall members extending therefrom. The outermost end of each of the side wall members are to cooperate together to form an enclosed area. A support ring is to be located about the outermost ends forming a polygonal shaped enclosed area. Thread fasteners are to threadingly extend through the support ring into the enclosed area and are adapted to come into contact with the trunk of the supported tree which in turn extends within the formed interior chamber of the housing. The interior chamber of the housing includes a flexible walled water tight container within which is to be located a quantity of water. The free end of the trunk of the tree is to rest upon a resilient pad of material secured to the inside surface of the container located adjacent the base of the sheet material housing.
