Check out turtlestuff.com for some great ideas.They offer a wide range of seeds that are both popular and nutritous for tortoises.
Dandelions would be first on my list followed by burmuda grass, and hibiscus plants/bushes. These are all very easy to grow, and will offer a good base for a grazing tortoise. The hibiscus will also offer shade for the hot days. Plantain is also a very good plant that grows quickly and offers high nutritional value. There is a giant variety available somewhere online, but I can't remember the name of the site off the top of my head.

The folks at AfricanTortoise.com have a list of edible landscaping as well as a general edible plants list.

That's a really nice site! Thanks for posting a link to it. I've got a few weeds growing around my house that I have been trying to identify, and hopefully will find them listed somewhere on the site.
