Poppies in England from the Royal British Legion have two petals; those in Scotland from Poppy Scotland (was The Earl Haig Fund Scotland until 2006) have four petals. Canada also uses a four-petal poppy. I do not know if Welsh & Northern Irish use the two or four petal poppy, but today I spotted someone wearing a five petal poppy and can't find anything about where it originates.
