In the runup to Rembrance Day, 11th November, we wear poppies to represent the fact that after World War One, the only thing that grew in the war fields was poppies.
It comes from the VFW Veterans of Foreign Wars Poppy Buddy campaign.
Poppies made into wreaths or even just a simple poppy. People put rosemary on their clothes, because that is what grew on the hills in Gallipoli. LEST WE FORGET!
The name Poppy comes from the flower
