Not that this is an endorsement for using temporary haste, but you can actually save every stack except the second by changing the order of your rotation.

Bloom 1, Bloom 2, Bloom 3, Rejuv/Regrowth changes to Bloom 1, Bloom 3, Bloom 2, Rejuv/Regrowth (or adding another stack to Bloom 2). This maintains Blooms 1 and 3 while Bloom 2 expires.

Bloom 1, Bloom 2, Bloom 3, Bloom 4 changes to Bloom 1, Bloom 3, Bloom 4, Bloom 2. This maintains Blooms 1, 3, and 4 while Bloom 2 expires. Depending on lag and amount of haste, you might only be able to save 2, but with my paper napkin math the exact threshold in percentage terms escapes me.
