Default [IBC] Mica Pots

Thank you, Andy

I'm from Barcelona (Catalonia-Spain), and here we have a lot of

heat and sun in
summer. I had heard that some people had problems with mica

pots because they absorb
more heat than ceramic due to his black colour. It's really

this?


They can absorb heat from their COLOR, not from their mica-ness.
Most bonsai pots are dark colors and they'd get just as warm. In
hot climates, your trees need shade.

people have learned to appreciate and cherish the landscape and
its living cover will they treat it with the care and respect it
should have - Paul Bigelow Sears.
