Poppies became widely associated with World War I due to their growth in the battlefields of Flanders, where the soil was disturbed by war. They bloomed in the aftermath of the conflict, symbolizing the sacrifice of soldiers and the resilience of life. The poignant image of poppies in war-torn landscapes inspired the famous poem "In Flanders Fields," further solidifying their connection to the war and its aftermath. This led to the establishment of Remembrance Day, where poppies are worn in honor of those who served.
