What do the poppies at the World War 1 museum stand for?
Flanders Field in Belgium. A cometary for WW1 soldiers. In Flanders Fields the poppies blow, Between the crosses row on row. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The reason for this is that the WW1 battle fields were stripped of vegetation and turned into fields of mud by the shelling that went on. Poppy seeds lie dormant in the soil for many, many years and when the ground is disturbed and they are brought up to the surface they sprout and flower the next summer. The battle fields of WW1 therefore turned into solid fields of bright red poppies, a striking sight that, given what had happened there, would have made a deep impression on anybody who saw them (hence the poem). In the UK on remembrance day (11/11) people wear red poppies and lay poppy wreaths in memory of the WW1 fallen.

But I do know that China has a bad track record for using slave labor to produce products, including those for overseas export.
