Wild flower patch

So I kinda went off this spring about how we suck as hunters with habitat. Went on about how we will mow acres of grass because it looks nice and the neighbors do the same. Well, change starts within and I plan to change that in the spring. I talked with my neighbor (long driveway) and we plan to plant some sort of wildflower mix. So I'm here for suggestions. I have some ideas but I'm mixed. We plan to split the cost and do both his property and mine.

@at1010 I'm all ears and I honestly didn't look at your seed blends to see if you offered anything along these lines. I would be all ears for a no till blend.

Plan right now is the strip between the driveways to be a flower blend that has some sort of bloom all spring/summer/fall. Likely add a hive and possibly a few bird houses or something. Just now getting the neighbors on the same page so looking for more information.

Pretty cool! Even if you planted blue stem it would give you like a privacy planting to separate the drives. Big problem with it would be to keep the invasives out.
