Sea Bird or Indonesian bat guano (I'm looking at my Sunleaves brand versions) should be best for flowering. I like the Sea Bird a little better-it's pressed into a pellet that's less messy and has high NPK values. You can look at the NPK values on the labels to help you decide. You can get them all as a 4 pack from Sunleaves as the 'International House of Guano'-they're each good for something at some point and probably won't go to waste in the long run.

Guano became a very important part of the development of agriculture in these United States. During the peak of the guano era, drastic steps were taken to maintain a supply for the U.S. farmer. "On August 18, 1856, Congress passed an act to authorize protection to be given to citizens of the United States who may discover guano, under which any citizen of the United States was authorized to take possession of and occupy any unclaimed island, rock or key containing guano. The discoverers of such islands were entitled to exclusive rights to the deposits thereon, but the guano could only be removed for the use of the citizens of the United States."Nutrients in guano are as different as there are a variety of producers, food sources and environmental constraints. Sea birds eat strictly small fish and are not scavengers. Bat guano is available from one species that thrives on fruit, while another feasts on insects. Guano can be fresh, semi-fossilized or fossilized and will be a factor, among others, on the nutrient content when used.
