Abstract
A water containment device. The water containment device provides a bendable strip for containing water around plants. The strip includes interlocking slots or other fasteners for creating a closed loop or connecting with a second similar strip. The strip also includes teeth on a bottom side that are configured to penetrate and engage a ground surface to keep the strip in an upright orientation. Once secured around a plant, the strip prevents water from leaving from a close proximity from the surface or the top soil around the plant.
