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.

A tree stand comprising: a sheet material housing having a planar base and a plurality of spaced-apart side wall members attached to said base and extending therefrom, each said side wall member including an outermost member, said outermost members to be locatable to form an enclosing area spaced above said base and centrally disposed in relation thereto; an interior chamber bounded by the inner surface of each of said side wall members and the upper surface of said base, a support ring located about said outermost members, securing means movably mounted on said support ring, said securing means being movable into said enclosing area and adapted to contact the trunk of the supported tree; and a flexible walled, water tight container located within said interior chamber, said container to be positioned against the inner surface of said side walls and the upper surface of said base, said container being adapted to be filled with a quantity of water causing said container to be tightly pressed against said side walls and said base to make available moisture to the truck of the supported tree and also provide sufficient weight at the base of the tree to keep the tree from tipping.
