Qingxin Flowers: Your Guide to Genshin Impact’s Mountain Daisy
Qingxin flowers seem delicate and white. They grow on Liyue’s peaks. However, their appearance can be misleading. They are essential for ascending popular characters like Xiao and Ganyu.

NPC Vendors: Your Quick Qingxin Fix
Sometimes you want a quick solution. You can buy Qingxin from two reliable NPCs.
Herbalist Gui: Liyue Harbor’s Green Thumb
Start at Bubu Pharmacy in Liyue Harbor. Herbalist Gui, the local apothecary, sells Qingxin. His stock refreshes every three days, allowing easy replenishment of your collection.
- Location: Bubu Pharmacy, Yujing Terrace, Liyue Harbor
- Restock: Every 3 days
Think of Gui as your go-to source for these mountain blooms. He’s dependable and always ready to help with herbs and Qingxin.
Babak: Sumeru’s Portside Provider
Head over to Port Ormos in Sumeru? Great news! Babak also sells Qingxin. Like Gui, his stock refreshes every three days for your convenience.
- Location: Port Ormos, Sumeru
- Restock: Every 3 days
If you’re near either Liyue or Sumeru, a Qingxin restock is close. Check back regularly to maintain your supply.
Farming Frenzy: Qingxin in the Wild
If you enjoy a challenge or wish to save Mora, you can farm Qingxin in the wild. These flowers thrive at high altitudes, growing on rocky ledges and cliffs. It’s a beautiful way to expend energy.
Statue of the Seven and Surroundings
A great spot to find Qingxin is near the Statue of the Seven, where they grow naturally. Teleport to the Statue and spot clusters nearby for quick picks.
- Tip: Circle the Statue and inspect nearby slopes.
Tall Rock West of the Statue
West of the Statue, a tall rock stands out prominently. Glide over to it. Here, you’ll find more Qingxin. It’s easy to access from the Statue.
- Tip: Look for white flowers on grey rocks.
Southeastern Teleport Waypoint Area
Another fruitful hunting ground lies near the southeastern Teleport Waypoint near the Statue. Warp there and explore cliffs and formations. You may uncover a few Qingxin plants here.
- Tip: Use your mini-map to guide your search systematically.
Serenitea Pot: Your Personal Qingxin Garden
If you desire stability in your farming, consider gardening in the Serenitea Pot. Good things take time, so patience is vital.
Seeds and Planting
Visit your Realm Depot within your Serenitea Pot to buy Qingxin seeds. Plant them in soil, then wait for two real-life days to harvest. Yes, time is a factor here. However, the reward is consistent Qingxin supply.
- Process: Buy seeds -> Plant -> Wait 2 real-life days -> Harvest
- Benefit: Reliable source of Qingxin.
This method requires time but yields continual returns. Plus, harvesting your own flowers can be quite rewarding.
Qingxin Power: Uses Beyond Pretty Flowers
The utility of Qingxin extends beyond aesthetics. They serve practical purposes in character ascension and culinary creations.
Ascension Material: Powering Up Xiao and Ganyu
You likely seek Qingxin to ascend characters like Xiao and Ganyu. Each requires 168 Qingxin for full ascension. Therefore, it’s a significant task either way!
- Characters: Xiao, Ganyu (and future characters)
- Quantity needed for max ascension: 168
If maxing out Xiao or Ganyu is your goal, prepare for a quest to gather Qingxin! Though tedious, stat boosts await!
Qingxin Flower Cake: A Culinary Curiosity
Surprisingly, you can use Qingxin to make Qingxin Flower Cake. You can get the recipe from Lianfang at Lianfang Dim Sum in Liyue Harbor for 2,500 Mora. The cake’s taste is debatable!
- Recipe Source: Lianfang at Lianfang Dim Sum (Liyue Harbor)
- Cost: 2,500 Mora
Qingxin Quantity: How Many Can You Grab?
If you are analytical about resources, knowing Qingxin’s availability aids in planning farming paths.
Total Qingxin in Teyvat: 138 (and Counting?)
- Approximate Total: 138
This figure only reflects what’s currently findable outside. Your Serenitea Pot garden could significantly increase your amount of Qingxin.
