The idea to use poppies as a symbol of remembrance for soldiers who died in World War I was popularized by Moina Michael, an American professor. Inspired by the poem "In Flanders Fields" by John McCrae, she began to advocate for the red poppy as a symbol of remembrance in 1918. The concept gained further traction through the efforts of the Royal British Legion, which adopted the poppy as a symbol of remembrance in the UK after the war.
