A nosegay, tussie-mussie, or posy is a small flower bouquet, typically given as a gift. They have existed in some form since at least medieval times, when they were carried or worn around the head or bodice.[1]
The term nosegay arose in fifteenth-century Middle English as a combination of nose and gay (which then meant "ornament"). So a nosegay was an ornament that appeals to the nose or nostril.[2]
The term tussie-mussie comes from the reign of Queen Victoria (1837–1901), when the small bouquets became a popular fashion accessory. Typically, tussie-mussies include floral symbolism from the language of flowers, and therefore may be used to send a message to the recipient.[3]
