发明名称 Garden plant watering device
摘要 This invention is directed toward a garden pot device that automatically waters garden plants and collects the drainage water. The device has a bottom portion with a source of electrical power and a pump and additionally provides support for a network of tubes leading to pots in which plants are grown. The network of tubes both provides water to the pots and collects water that drains out of the pots for use in the next watering.
