The Whispering Woods: Glowing rare biome and the Shy Sprout mob

Minecraft needs rare, magical biomes that reward exploration, similar to Mushroom Islands. Introducing the Whispering Woods and its friendly inhabitant, the Shy Sprout.
The Biome: Whispering Woods
A rare, enchanting forest with glowing Willow Trees and neon ferns. It spawns with a rarity similar to Ice Spikes. At night, the entire forest naturally lights up in soothing teal colors. No hostile mobs can spawn inside its borders.
The Mob: The Shy Sprout (Reverse Creaking Mechanic)
The Shy Sprout is a small, adorable creature made of glowing moss and big wooden eyes. It is completely passive.
Stage Fright: When a player looks directly at the Sprout, it completely freezes like a wooden statue, covering its face out of shyness.
The Secret Helper: The moment you look away, the Sprout comes alive. It quietly follows you, planting rare flowers in your footsteps and speed-growing your crops instantly.
The Farewell Gift: If you spend a night in the biome without hitting a Sprout, it will sneak up behind you and drop "Slumber Dust". Right-clicking a bed with this dust permanently enchants it, allowing you to skip the night even if monsters are nearby.

    I think the enchanted beds should have a different power than being able to sleep even near monsters, especially because the biome shows no monsters in it's borders. Perhaps it can refill your health each night, or give a temporary effect. Also, while it might be a cool and rewarding biome, more experienced players might not like it because it makes the game too easy once you find one. It needs some sort of twist to it that doesn't ruin the peaceful area, like maybe there could be ruined areas inside where monsters can spawn, or maybe at certain times the monster spawning starts up again for one reason or another.

    Thanks for the feedback, Asher! But the main idea is to break the vanilla Minecraft rule where you can't sleep near monsters. I want to keep this feature. Though adding some corrupted danger zones inside the biome sounds interesting for the future.
