ABSTRACT:
A tree watering device comprises a funnel having an aperture at one end coupled to an elongated tubing which extends horizontally for a predetermined distance and then downwardly into a tree stand which contains water for the base of a tree mounted therein. The hollow tubing includes an aperture in the wall thereof in the portion mounted within the stand and a C-shaped element protruding through the wall of the tubing opposite the aperture. The C-shaped element restricts the movement of a float between the legs which protrude through the wall. The aperture emits a gurgling sound when water is poured into the funnel until the water level rises causing the float to cover the hole causing the gurgling to cease and indicating that it is time to cease adding water.
