📋 About This Mod
Just a quick new texture/normal map/glow map for the Deathbell, both the flower and the leaves. It has always been neglected by every single texture pack that I'm aware of, and I always wanted a nice texture for it, so I decided to make one from scratch. This isn't an upscale or anything, the original textures and normal maps were not used at all. The leaves have a slightly different shape, but the rest is 100% true to vanilla.
While you're at it, grab this lovely Nightshade texture; it partially inspired me to make this : Nightshade Phosphorescent Natural Flower by Renthal311
Available in 2K and 1K resolutions. 4K would have been a little crazy for a plant and ingredient.
- 2K includes 2K diffuse, 2K normal, 1K uncompressed glow map (saved as L8 luminance)
- 1K includes 1K diffuse, 1K normal, 1K DXT1 compressed glow map
Use your favorite mod manager, or drop it into your /DATA/ folder -- done and done!
I use Skyrim Flora Overhaul, Hybrids HD Plants & Herbs, High Quality Food and Ingredients, Skyrim 2K, Skyrim Mod Combiner, and there are no conflicts. For some reason the Deathbell has always been neglected.
Cheers!

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust with 6,067 endorsements and 180k downloads
- True HD rework, not a lazy upscale—textures are built from scratch
- Glow maps make the Deathbell pop at night, a nice touch for alchemists
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2015—may not be optimized for newer Skyrim versions or mod setups
- Only covers Deathbell, so you'll need other mods for a full flora overhaul
- No mention of compatibility with texture mods like SMIM or other plant overhauls
For Skyrim players who want a high-quality, lore-friendly upgrade to a common alchemy ingredient without overhauling the entire flora. If you're a completionist aiming for consistent HD textures across all plants, this is a solid pick. Skip if you're looking for gameplay changes—this is purely cosmetic.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Choose the 2K version if you have a decent GPU; 1K is fine for lower-end systems or VR.
- Install with a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to easily switch between resolutions.
- If you use other plant texture mods, load Deathbell HD after them to ensure it takes priority.
