sumidad florida y sumidad áerea

Spanish to English Science Botany
I cannot find this anywhere, neither online or in dictionaries. Does "sumidad florida" mean flower head or the flowering part? As for "sumidad áerea", I just can't fathom it.
By the way, the context is a series of 'fichas' for homepathic medicines, in which the various plants and active ingresients are described.

I think "sumidad aerea" could possibly mean "aerial part" take a look at this link, it comes in Spanish too: http://www.plameca.com/prod_hierbas_ficha.asp?id=153&op=bota...

I think you're on the right track with "flower head", I found this explanation, take a look: "Pues yo entiendo como sumidad florida toda la parte aérea de la planta cuando está en flor, aunque normalmente se evita la parte inferior por estar en peor estad

La sumidad se encuadra entre las Leguminosas tóxicas, con alcaloides derivados de quinolizidinas, como citisina, abundante en las semillas maduras. Es un veneno de los ganglios, gangliopléjico, que primero los excita y luego los paraliza, provoca convulsiones que pueden entrañar la muerte por asfixia.

La esencia obtenida de la sumidad de ruda es tóxica y responsable del efecto emenagogo siendo compuesto que ocasiona tal efecto, metil-nonil-cetona. Los derivados flavónicos son principios que también se encuentra presentes en la planta, destaca la presencia de rutina, ramnoglucósido del quercetol, principio aislado por primera vez en esta planta y responsable del aumento de la resistencia vascular y de la disminución de la permeabilidad capilar, por tanto está indicado en el tratamiento de procesos hemorroidales y varicosos

inflorescence and vegetative part

I've translated these kinds of botanical descriptions before, and these are the terms I'd use.
Peer comment(s):

agree Sandra Holt : I think John's is an excellent translation for this.

flowering and fruiting tops

The Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs of 1961 is an international treaty to prohibit production and supply of specific (nominally narcotic) drugs and of drugs with similar effects except under license for specific purposes, such as medical treatment and research.

The Single Convention defines "cannabis" as the flowering or fruiting tops of the cannabis plant (excluding the seeds and leaves when not accompanied by the tops) from which the resin has not been extracted.
