Thanks and regards
TECHNICOLOR ALCHEMY OVERHAUL SE
I've placed over 3000 rare and colorful alchemy plant variants in locations all across Skyrim. There are now over 80 different plants featuring some from Morrowind. Many of these herbs have properties that differ from the common strains and the plants from Morrowind are extremely potent. Optimized the meshes and Changed to Form 44 for Skyrim SE and ported by me.
Install using Mod Manager of choice. I use and recommend MO2.Install only ONE MAIN FILE.

💡 Beginner Tips
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to install and manage load order easily.
- Check for compatibility patches if you use other mods that edit the same world spaces.
- In-game, look for new plants in forests, caves, and near water—they're placed to blend naturally.
