Clover Glades

You're walking silently through a forest when suddenly you see an opening in the thick of forest full of swirling green particles. This is extremely exciting because this is what you have been searching for all along!

I'm proposing the "Clover Glades" as a new overworld biome.

• Generation: This biome would only generate within the regular forest biome and would be fully enclosed (you would not find it "leaking" into a plains biome for instance).
• Appearance: This biome would generate with swirling green particles not dissimilar to those from Spore Blossoms, and would have the floor entirely covered in clovers. Clovers could work similarly to Sea Pickles, Turltle Eggs or Candles in groupings to add variation. Entering this biome would feel like a magical experience.

This biome would be a reward feature, a place players would be willing to search for. This is because one would find two very valuable pieces of loot:

• Clovers: Besides a wonderful piece of decoration, clovers would finally make the Luck status effect attainable in Survival.
• Emeralds: Extremely large deposits of emeralds would be found right below the surface of this biome. These would not go extremely deep (10-15 blocks max) and not all of it would be ore (similar to a vein). I'm picturing glades about 20x20 blocks big so they would not be too overpowered, but powerful enough so players would go out of their way to find them.

Clover Glades would be relatively rare.

  Glades are also famously small pockets of unique wildlife. Besides these glades filled with clovers, other kinds of glades could be a thing. One filled with flowers, another with moss...

  Also maybe, the trees surrounding the glade could be variants of Dark Oak trees that are big enough to house doorways into some kind of village below. Maybe the creatures living in this village below could worship Emeralds in a similar way to how Piglins worship Gold. Although I'm thinking something along the lines of a dwarf-like passive species (maybe something like underground Ewoks?) and not fully fledged enemies like Piglins.

  Very good idea, I was going to suggest a clover biome.  Good idea about the luck potion/clover thing.  I've always wanted the luck effect in survival. Also maybe very small amounts of clover would spawn in the new meadow biomes that are in the 1.18 experimental snapshots.

  Utilising the luck effect is a great idea, but I would instead let them expand and get rid of the emeralds idea, since they are meant to be exclusive to mountains.
  Also, I would like make it so that only the rare, 4-leaved clovers could have the potion use, and the rest be decorational and useful to breed horses, since that's what real life clover is used for.
