The rosemary might do okay as it's a Mediterrean plant and likes kind of dry climes.
You should be able to find some variety of mint that is perfect for the area. Maybe you'd have luck with Corsican mint, which should do fine in dry rocky soil, is good ground-cover, and actually tolerates being walked on.
Yucca works, maybe agave and cholla as well? I don't think you want creosote, though it's really drought resistant -- it's also kind of icky, since it's other name is tarbush.
