📋 About This Mod
This mod is no longer supported
This mod alters the textures of the aspen trees to a more realistic look with more diverse colors. I never liked the monotony of the aspen trees. This mod changes the colors to yellow, orange and red. Fully compatible with Skyrim Flora Overhaul. Since this mod alters the tree meshes it's not compatible with mods, which do the same. 2k textures are recommended for good performance, but also sharp looking leaf textures.
