Backyarding Personality Types: The Nature Lover

Have you identified your backyarding personality type yet? According to the TurfMutt Foundation, knowing your backyarding personality type will help you design a landscape that is not only beautiful but is also purposeful and specifically suited to how you backyard.

This month, we’re shining a spotlight on the Nature Lover. For these folks, the backyard is a private sanctuary for observation. Their favorite pastime is watching birds, butterflies and other local wildlife thrive in their natural habitat.

The Nature Lover’s dream yard features a diverse mix of native plants. By choosing a variety of species and colors that bloom throughout the year, they create a reliable source of food and shelter for pollinators and backyard wildlife.

Of course, the Nature Lover also needs the perfect “perch” for viewing. This might be a simple bench tucked under the shade of a tree or a comfortable chair on the deck – anywhere that provides a front-row seat to the wonders of nature.
