Tatty your tort will feel safer with more cover, the plants I used were Rosemary ( has grown brilliantly ), Heather (died, replaced with new one, so far so good), Carex (grown well, excellent cover, makes Jerry feel safe and secure), Sedum( Jerry liked it a bit too much...laxative effect..removed), Lavender(growing well, good cover) Thyme(growing well, good cover), Campanula (eaten..all of it), Hebe(he has a nibble now and again but good shelter)..Some of these plants are the same as yours so I hope this helps.
Also, I hope you don't mind me saying but I think your hutch section lid is on upside down, the water will collect in this when it rains and the wood will rot.

Gemma..Jerry has been outside 24/7 since mid May, safe and secure and he's not one year old yet.
