Typically speaking, I can use a single Wild Growth to heal any AOE damage being taken, and spot heal with Rejuvenation or Lifebloom, instead of waiting for Tranquility to finish channeling. It would be less of an issue on a fight where I wasn't needed to keep HoTs on the tank. It does work extremely well on the Loatheb fight though. Most of the time Rejuvenation is overwritten in 25-mans. I prefer to use it for the longer duration, but almost every time I do so I see it overwritten shortly thereafter by a Paladin or a Priest with a small direct heal. Lifebloom, on the other hand, heals quick enough I don't see it overwritten. Naturally this will vary depending upon how familiar the healers are with each other too. In 10-mans I can use Rejuvenation because the other healers in our guild are aware that I use it, and understand how strong a spell it really is. Unfortunately, we're not large enough to do guild-only 25-mans, so I have to modify my preferences based on the raid composition more than I would like.

It's lovely for tenmanning, especially talented. Give it a try! And why not use rejuvenation for 25man raid healing? I’d have expected the biggest difference actually to be tranquility!
