I just found this kicking about on my hard drive from months ago, so figured I'd throw it up. Since then, I've switched from Vurt's fertile overhaul to the dead version...because it seems more realistic, but I do still like this.
Exactly... I mean, this is the post-apocalyptic dessert we are talking about, after all. What I've done instead, alongside the dead version, is add Vurt's new plant textures, in addition to some others, and I have a mod that improves the grass. This combination provides some splashes of colour to the desert, but it still feels plausible. In real life, when devastating forest fires occur, it are the smaller plants and bushes that re-emerge first. I've hiked in places that have experienced forest fires, and it's always incredible to see vividly coloured blooms and a profusion of grasses amidst downed, blackened trees. So.. yeah... my current set up does feel more lore-friendly. Cheers, btw.
