   Parks & Rec used that on a new trail that cut through an old berm to get   
   to a viewpoint. The area is short grass prairie so they probably used blue   
   grama and buffalo grass in the mix. The upper area is too arid to have   
   much of the way of wildflowers so they would be out of place if they even   
   survived.   
      
   The lower part does have flowers in the spring. The bad news is it's   
   mostly leafy spurge, an invasive species that Parks would like to   
   eliminate. They've tried sheep and beetles with limited success and   
   usually wind up spraying Tordon although that isn't particularly effective   
   either.
