In actual play Taric got next to no mana out of his old passive because auto attacking minions pushes the wave and leaves you susceptible to ganks and he gets far more mileage out of controlling the brush and setting up dazzles.

If you want a healer bring Sona or Soraka, not Taric. You bring Taric for his aggression, not for his sustain; it's why so many people think Riot should just flat out remove his heal in favor of something more befitting of his kit.
