Alright, Genshin fans! You are in Inazuma. You see pretty pink petals. Those are Sakura Blooms. You need to collect these things. Let’s talk about how to gather Sakura Blooms without getting electrocuted.
Finding Your Pink Petals: Sakura Bloom Locations in Genshin Impact
Where are these Sakura Blooms? Look around Narukami Island. Focus on Mt. Yougou and the Grand Narukami Shrine. Picture scenic mountain paths and ancient shrines with pink petals. If you’re near the Shrine, you are in the right place. Check out this handy Sakura Bloom farming route video for help.
Heads up, you can’t find these blooms anywhere else in Teyvat. Liyue, Mondstadt, or Sumeru won’t work – Narukami Island is where the Sakura Bloom resides. No vendors sell these blooms, you must forage.
Electro-Cute Your Way to Sakura Blooms: How to Collect Them
See the pink petals? Great! Now try to pick them up… Nope, it doesn’t work, right? In Genshin’s world, you need to zap them with an Electro ability. Any Electro attack works. If you prefer, you can also use an Electrograna. This will let you pick those blooms.
Once you hit them with Electro, they become solid. Then you can collect them. Grab a few and head to the next sparkling pink area. It’s like Pokémon Go but with elemental reactions.
Patience is Pink: Sakura Bloom Respawn Time
You cleared a whole area of blooms and feel like a pro. But here’s a real check: they do not grow back immediately. Sakura Blooms take a 48-hour respawn timer. Yes, two days. Plan your farming sessions wisely or find something else to do for a couple of days. Maybe fight some Ruin Guards or ten.
Unlocking the Sacred Sakura Tree: Your Ticket to Rewards
Speaking of the Narukami Shrine, ever see that giant tree? That’s the Sacred Sakura Tree. It is not just for looks. You must complete a quest: “The Sacred Sakura and the Warring Thunder“.
This quest begins when you interact with the tree at the Grand Narukami Shrine, which sits on Mt. Yougou. You can even spot it from Inazuma City. Just follow the path to the shrine. But first, escape Ritou, which is Inazuma’s version of customs.
After starting the quest, just follow the instructions. It is your typical Genshin quest: explore Inazuma, gather Electroculi, and chat with NPCs. Finish the quest line, and you unlock the Sacred Sakura Tree. Confetti won’t fall, but you can imagine it.
Level Up Your Tree, Level Up Your Life (in Genshin)
Unlocking the tree is just the beginning. To fully benefit from it, you need to level it up. Use Electro Sigils for this. They act as tree fertilizer, but electric.
Where do you get Electro Sigils? Explore Inazuma. Your main source is from opening chests. The rarer the chest, the more Sigils you earn. You’ll also gain them by upgrading Statues of the Seven and completing one-time domains. Just play Inazuma and you’ll find plenty of Sigils. For a detailed process, check out this Electro Sigil farming guide. You need about 250 Sigils to max out the Sakura Tree starting from level 40. Start gathering now!
Leveling the Sacred Sakura Tree gives rewards. You earn more Electroculi, boosted Electro Resonance, and access to Electrograna. It’s like a game reward for… playing the game. Imagine that.
Sakura Bloom Mania: It’s Not Just a Genshin Thing
Sakura Blooms are in other games too! It’s clear that many love that pink petal look.

Fun Sakura Facts (Because Why Not?)
Sakura often bloom beautifully but fleetingly. They usually stick around for about 10 to 14 days. The full bloom period may last a few days or two weeks based on weather.
Japan has a tradition called Hanami. It celebrates the beauty of cherry blossoms. Quite deep for pink petals.
If you plan to plant a cherry blossom tree, they grow at a moderate pace of 2 to 4 feet each year. Not quick but not slow either. You have time to think about beauty while waiting.
There you have it – Sakura Blooms, Sacred Sakura Trees, and lots of pink petal power. Go collect, level up, and contemplate beauty’s fleeting nature or just get those character materials. Whatever you prefer!
