ABSTRACT:
A tree stand for holding a tree, such as a Christmas tree, in an upright position comprises a ring, a container having an open top, a closed bottom, a diameter which is less than the diameter of the ring and hook formations at the top of the container for engaging the ring so that the container depends from the ring. A plurality of legs is provided. Each leg has an upper section and a partially circular upwardly facing notch for engaging and supporting the ring in such a manner that the upper section of each leg pivots inwardly against a trunk of a tree when a cut lower end edge of the trunk of the tree is placed within the container and creates a downward force by virtue of the weight of the tree upon the bottom of the container.
