Fairy Wormwood Locations: All 93 in Genshin Impact 7.2, with a Fast Farming Route

Genshin Impact 7.2 has 93 Fairy Wormwood to collect: 79 plants growing in Teplo Oasis (60) and the Crystal-Tree Grotto (19), a one-time chest a Seelie leads you to, and 5 a day from Vlasta’s shop in Novokitezhgrad. SoraHoshina’s description splits it the same way: “a total of 79 farmable Fairy Wormwood, 9 in a one-time chest, and 5 from a shop.”

The table follows the video’s chapters. Each one opens with a teleport, so the timestamps work as a route: teleport, sweep, teleport again. The counter column is the number SoraHoshina keeps in the top-left corner of the footage.

Fairy Wormwood is the Snezhnaya Local Specialty added in Genshin Impact 7.2, a small yellow plant with crystal leaves that grows in Teplo Oasis and inside the Crystal-Tree Grotto. The game’s own text, shown when SoraHoshina buys a stack at 6:33: “A curious variety of wormwood that grows in Teplo Oasis. As it takes root, the plant draws minerals from deep beneath the earth, causing crystal-like deposits to form across its leaves.”

Teplo Oasis is closed until you finish a world quest. SoraHoshina says so in an on-screen note before the first plant: “Make sure to complete the Let Not All Rivers Run Dry quest to unlock Teplo Oasis.” In the description it is the third quest in their order of Novokitezhgrad and Wingspan Peak world quests, after To The Kristall City and Citadel of the Ancient Fae.

On the map, Teplo Oasis is the golden island at the top of Wingspan Peak, north of Hallowed Plain, with a Statue of The Seven on its east bank. The plant shows up in two places only: the island itself, and the Crystal-Tree Grotto under Novokitezhgrad.

Teplo Oasis holds 60 of the 79 plants, and SoraHoshina clears them in four legs from 0:00 to 4:10, starting on the market terrace at the island’s north-west waypoint. The run is filmed at night for the first two legs, which helps: the plants have a faint glow and stand out against the dark grass.

Leg 1 stays close to the waypoint. The first plants are on the slope behind the market stalls, and the clusters come in twos and threes: the pick-up feed at 0:21 shows three “Fairy Wormwood × 1” lines in a row.

Leg 2 is the long one, 25 plants in a minute and a half. It runs through the north fields along wooden fences and a dirt path, then down to the river that cuts the island in two. Most of the plants sit on the edge of the path or just behind the fence posts, so you rarely have to leave the track.

Legs 3 and 4 start from the Statue of The Seven on Teplo Oasis’s east bank and sweep the south lake and the golden western fields, taking the count from 38 to 60. SoraHoshina teleports to the statue at 2:30; its panel reads “Teplo Oasis, Snezhnaya”.

The south leg is shore work. The plants line the lake in daylight, between the beach and the cliffs, and a few sit on ledges a short climb up. The lake bank at 3:05 gives three at once.

Leg 4, from 3:32, is a short loop through the tall golden grass on the west side of the island, seven plants in under forty seconds. That is the island done: 60 Fairy Wormwood.

The other 19 plants grow inside the Crystal-Tree Grotto, the underground cavern under Novokitezhgrad, and SoraHoshina reaches them from two of its teleport waypoints: the west one by the crystal tree (12 plants) and the north one (7). The grotto has to be unlocked first; our Crystal-Tree Grotto chest guide covers the way in and its puzzles.

The grotto is darker and bluer than the island, and the plants are harder to spot against the glowing grass. Watch for the yellow head of the flower rather than its leaves. They grow along the shallow streams and the edge of the purple bushes.

At 5:20 Paimon passes a patch of dimmed plants and says: “More dimmed plants here… If only we had Kristallflies about.” That is one of the grotto’s lamp crystal puzzles, not part of this route. The Fairy Wormwood here is on open ground.

Leg 6 starts at 5:35 from the grotto’s north waypoint and adds seven plants around the meadow below it. The counter reaches 79 at 6:00, the last plant you can pick.

A Seelie in the Crystal-Tree Grotto, next to the last plant of the route, leads to a one-time treasure chest that contains Fairy Wormwood. SoraHoshina’s on-screen note at 6:00: “The next ones are from a one-time treasure chest. Follow this Seelie, and it will lead you to a treasure chest with 8 Fairy Wormwood.”

The numbers do not agree, and this page will not pick one for you. The note on screen says 8, the description says 9, and the counter jumps from 79 to 88, which is 9. The chest is not opened on camera either: at the shop a minute later, the purchase screen shows “Owned: 79”, so the chest had already been taken off camera. Count on 8 or 9, once per account.

If you have already done the grotto’s Seelie puzzles for its Luxurious Chest, check whether this Seelie is still there before you plan around it.

Vlasta, the owner of the flower stall “Fluffy Gloves” in Downtown Novokitezhgrad, sells 5 Fairy Wormwood a day at 1,000 Mora each, 5,000 Mora for the lot. SoraHoshina teleports to the town at 6:10 and buys them at 6:30.

The purchase screen reads “Left Today: 5”, with “Items refresh in: 6 hour(s) 31 minute(s)” at the bottom. So the stock resets daily, unlike the plants. The same panel also lists two other ways to get it: “Recommendation: Found in Teplo” Oasis and “Grown in the Serenitea Pot”.

Vlasta sells other Snezhnaya ingredients too: Red Beet, Glaciafruit, Snowball Flower, Rimecurrant and Lanternberry at 240 Mora (10 a day each), and Kristallfold, the other 7.2 local specialty, at 1,000 Mora (5 a day).

[Valeriy](/characters/valeriy), the 4-star Electro sword of 7.2, and [the Tsaritsa](/characters/tsaritsa), due in 7.3, each need 168 Fairy Wormwood to go from level 1 to 90. The six ascensions take 3, 10, 20, 30, 45 and 60, the usual local specialty curve. The figures come from the game’s ascension data, the same numbers our ascension calculator uses.

Plants respawn 48 hours after you pick them, like every local specialty, and the shop resets every day. With the route, the chest and the shop, one character to level 90 is three days of play:

Our [Genshin Impact interactive map](/map?t=o875) shows 79 Fairy Wormwood markers, the same number as the route’s plants, and the link opens it with only that layer on. Use it alongside the video: the map shows where each plant is, and the video shows the order to pick them in.

The map has a “Mark as found” button on every marker, saved in your browser, so on day 3 you can see which plants you missed on day 1. “Copy link” gives you a link to the exact spot, handy for asking a friend in co-op to take the grotto while you do the island.

Three things save time on the route. Clear the night legs in Teplo Oasis at night, when the glow makes the plants easy to see. Take a fast character for exploration: SoraHoshina runs Vesna, with Odette, Faruzan and Vodyanitsa in the party. And buy from Vlasta every day, even on days you do not run the route: 5 a day adds up to 35 a week.

For the rest of Valeriy’s materials, the farming planner sorts every domain and boss by the day it is open. The other 7.2 exploration guides are the Crystal-Tree Grotto chests and the Pied Piper hidden achievement. Current redeem codes are on the codes page.
