I don't know what the weeds are either but I have found this site to be helpful since it not only has the names bu the pics as well.

Would suggest that your tortoise will know if something is OK for him to eat or not. I remember vividly the first time I offered Kava leaves to my torts, they looked at those big soft green leaves like they were manna from heaven took one bite and tried like crazy to get that crap out of their mouths. LOL It tastes terrible! These guys have the ability to find food in the wild they will pretty much do the same thing in your yard. If you really do want to know what a specific weed is though I would recommend that you take a sample to your local county extention office. Someone there will know for sure.
