Those are all okay. Tortoises can also eat hibiscus flowers and leaves, nasturtium flowers, violas, pansies, petunias, and roses.
Just remember all food sources must be pesticide free.

Two sources of excellent grazing mix (grass seeds, weed seeds, other edible tortoise food sources) are
Annie Lancaster www.turtlestuff.com
Theresa Chirico www.turtlecafe.net

Theresa also has a link to a poisonous plants list as well as edible plants on her site.

Hope this helps.
Heather
