We were the first in North America to grow species such as Glossostipula concinna, Zinowiewia matudae, Lozanella enantiophylla, Weinmannia pinnata, Meliosma matudae, Cedrela salvadorensis, and Heberdenia penduliflora. Over the decades, the collection has matured into a realistic representation of cloud forest habitat.
The Silky Terrier dog breed exemplifies the expression âsmall dog, big personality.â Weighing just eight to 10 pounds when full grown, heâs tough and confident, perhaps because of his heritage as a hunter of small prey. Beneath the feistiness, however, is a loving companion dog who loves to stick close to his person.
Males are larger than females. The Norwich terrier is a similar breed, once considered a Norfolk, but the Norwich has pricked, fox-like ears while the Norfolk's ears hang down. The soft-coated wheaten terrier is much larger, maturing between 17 and 19 inches high and weighing between 30 and 40 pounds. Again, males are larger than females.
