Do you ever have anything constructive to say?Frost staff is garbage.

Your resto bar makes no sense to me. It looks like there's only one resto skill on it, unmorphed, and not one I'd pick for solo play even if it were morphed. Rapid Regeneration/Mutagen and Healing Ward are much more useful resto skills in almost any kind of casual play.
Also -- double-barring the Fetcher DoT and not having a spammable (Bird or otherwise) seems very weird. And as others have said before, Shalks is a great skill; I use it even when I'm healing, along with Blockade.
And while I've been late figuring this out myself -- Lotus Blossom seems way underrated, especially since it's said to proc the Nature's Gift Passive.

If this is for group content then I suggest picking one of those tasks and focusing on that. If you want to heal and want to use a restoration staff then you MUST have a lightning staff bar with wall of elements to provide off-balance to your group. If you are a damage dealer in a group for PvE that resto staff has no business being on your build.
Your listed skill bar only even has 1 restoration staff skill on it so why don't you just put a lightning staff on your back bar and wall of elements on there so you can actually give your group some off-balance.

You never need to have an lightning staff to provide off-balance support (the only time perhaps would be with a magDK that absolutely needs off-balance to proc powerlash but no other build in the game needs off-balance). I´m not saying it´s beneficial because it really is and will give a huge boost to the group. But is it absolutely needed?? no
Ok, so here’s my new Skill Setup...
Frost Staff
Crystallized Slab
Ice Fortress
Blockade of Frost
Winter’s Revenge
Frost Clench
Northern Storm
Restoration Staff
Blessing of Restoration
Leeching Vines
Enchanted Growth
Budding Seeds
Rapid Regeneration
Healing Thicket
And I should also add this reason on Why I use a Frost Staff...
I prefer to Role-Play as a Genuine Frost Mage/Green Healer for the sake of Role-Playing for Kyne’s Sakes.

A warden without Animal Companion skills is going to do very weak damage.
But I guess that's the price of your RP.

Blue betty is nice I would use it. And if you keep it up you can use the necro set for a huge magicka pool.
