Plant watering method and apparatus

An apparatus for delivering liquid to a plant growing medium in a pot, said apparatus comprising holding means for holding liquid;

• dispensing means, positioned at a first elevation relative to the plant growing medium, for dispensing liquid at a predetermined drip rate;
• connecting means for connecting said dispensing means to said holding means so as to allow liquid to flow from said holding means to said dispensing means;
• adjusting means, mounted on said connecting means, for manually adjusting said. predetermined drip rate, whereby a user may selectively choose one of a plurality of different drip rates;
• and suspending means for suspending said holding means above the plant growing medium at a second elevation which is higher than said first elevation, whereby a gravitational flow occurs as liquid travels from said holding means to said dispensing means, said suspending means having a support stake, which has a pair of portions for positioning said support stake in an orientation in which one of said portions is removably embedded in the plant growing medium and another of said portions extends upwardly from the plant growing medium, said holding means releasably connected to one of a plurality of points positioned at one of a plurality of elevations along said another portion of said support stake such that said holding mean is suspended from said one of said plurality of points at said second elevation and such that said second elevation is adjustable and determined by said one of said plurality of elevations.
