A new bracket comprises a single piece of rod bent at the outboard end to provide a device for hanging a flower pot or other item. At the inboard or baluster end the rod is shaped by a series of four perpendicular bends. The length of the rod between the first and second bends and the length of the rod between the third and fourth bends are substantially the same and determined by the width of the baluster transverse to the bracket. The length of the rod between the second and third bends is determined by both the thickness of the baluster and the angle of the bracket relative to the vertical direction of the baluster. To remain in position the bracket relies upon friction with the baluster in combination with the weight of the bracket and load on the bracket outboard end.
