It's 1.5 seconds, I'll update first post. Only noticed now that it doesn't say in the tooltip that it can't be cast in ToL. That means indeed we might actually have to heal in caster form on several encounters.
What I myself find particularly interesting is that Gift of the Earthmother reduces the value of haste rating significantly, depending on the Lifebloom cycle (e.g. lot of use of Regrowth / Nourish / Swiftmend). Also, Rejuvenation + Swiftmend combo becomes a lot better.
And about Flourish, this spell and CoH will both be raid-wide instead of restricted to group members only. While instant heals (CoH) are almost always 'better', the strength of Flourish seems that it has a much greater HPM value. It heals for almost the same base amount, but CoH costs 730 mana versus 450 mana of Flourish (I'm guessing this is excluding the 20% mana reduction from ToL). Also I'm curious which of the two spells will scale better with spell power.
