Also, the subtle aesthetic quality that an excellent
bonsai pot can convey as part of a bonsai display is prized for obvious
reasons.

Another vote for the ceramic as desirable is the close relationship
between the mediums of tree and pot. Probably we consider a ceramic pot
made of clay as pretty fundamental in the medium used. Mica, as all
mediums, is from nature, too, but not as closely a natural ground of the
tree. I always prefer it on that basis, but I couldn't hope to handle some
of my trees without the lighter weight of mica and I am happy to have them.
