The reason florae is so useful is you can set up mine field-like areas and do damage while staying off enemies X-axis. The "mine fields" are useful for mobile bosses (think Headless Horseman/Shred) as well as some other more specific circumstances (Screaming Cave 2nd/3rd rooms.) I won't really say much on pluto since it sounds you're pretty well aware of the pros/cons of that skill.
Sun Burst and Walls are both really good skills, I have both maxed on mine, but they're used for different things. Sun Burst does more damage, has a MUCH shorter CD (5.5 compared to 16.5 seconds)and, once the EX is learned, has comparable range to Ice Walls while still retaining a bit of utility since it can knock enemies down. Ice Walls does slightly less damage, has a longer CD but has far more utility. It pushes enemies much further away and can be used to dodge explosions (gob 2nd room/heiz boss,) preventing shockwaves from knocking you back (gob 3rd room/priest guys in noire) and helps a lot in GT as it deflects all of Floo's punches.
You can't really go wrong with either of these choices though as all of the skills are very good so in the end it's all just preference.
