Comment 1 Michael Orlitzky gentoo-dev 2015-06-30 18:49:14 UTC 
Both packages look similar; I've emailed the author to see if he can suggest a way to resolve the conflict (e.g. maybe one supersedes the other).
Comment 2 Michael Orlitzky gentoo-dev 2015-07-01 14:51:13 UTC 
From the author:

  biosff incorporates flower, so if you have the former, you can ignore
  the latter... I think the flower package can be safely deprecated.

So unless anyone objects, I suggest masking sci-bio/flower in favor of biosff.

# Mask for removal in 30 days. Superseded by dev-haskell/biosff;
# use that instead. Bug #553636.
