I think you mean the poppies that you pins on your jacket or shirt? Well if you do, then the soldiers who have been badly wounded at war made and sold them because they could not work. These earlier ones are made out of read cloth with a black center. Plus, there weren't enough poppies to go around to everyone.

Poppies are traditionally worn on the lapel or shirt collar to commemorate Armistice Day 11 November 1818 and are said to reflect the fields of poppies in Flanders, France the site of one of the bloodiest battles of the first World War
