It really is only in reference to a bunch, or bouquet, or nosegay of flowers. There can be different types of posies from roses to lavender. It can also be a single flower. It seems to me that it was just a general way of saying flower/bouqet with out getting technical as saying a dozen roses long stemmed blah blah...lol... It is not a specific flower.

In the nursery rhyme ..... a pocket full of posies.. i think that is even in reference to dried flowers in the pocket.
