Wildflower seed recommendations for tricky rooftop patch.

Hi everyone!
There is a roof space in my building which is unused and I would like to sow wildflower seeds on it and have something nicer to look at that its current state.
See image attached - it has a basic level of soil with stones covering it, but weeds, moss and some grasses have started to grow on it as it is left unattended.
It gets maximum sunlight during the summer months and there is no water source for me to water the area, so it really will be left to nature to do its thing.
Could you please advise me on what the best seeds are to sow for this area? I live in an industrial part of East London, should the pollution levels make a difference to what type of flowers can grow there.
Thanks so much!

Maybe a good place to look for some planning info?
