- During the Mondstadt Commission A New Storm Is Brewing, Vind explains that Windwheel Asters cannot grow in places with no wind nor plagued by strong storms, it can only grow where the wind is gentle and nourishing. As such, Windwheel Asters are used to determine how strong the wind was in a certain area based on how well they grew there.
- Despite that, it seems to be possible for Windwheel Asters to grow in places with little to no wind, as they can be seen growing in Merusea Village if the player chose "Let's go with a Windwheel Aster" option to fulfill Cosanzeana's request in There Will Come Soft Rains.
- Paimon mentions that "Windwheel Asters grow out in the wild, and they're a tough breed", as the reason why they might grow in Merusea Village.
