It's not just in England. People in France and Canada do it as well as in other countries. The reason is because in WWI, there was a huge battle in Flander's Fields; one of the bloodiest battles ever. Everything was destroyed in that battle, homes, buildings etc. Thousands of soldiers lost their lives. The only thing that survived the battle were poppies. Many of the soldiers who died were buried in poppy fields as well. To remember the brave soldiers who gave their lives, people in these and other countries wear poppies on Remembrance Day (Nov. 11th). There is a famous poem about the poppies, titled "In Flander's Fields" by John McCrae. You should look it up. It's really sad. :(
