What do the colours on a poppy represent?
The poppy flower has had symbolic meaning for centuries. The name "poppy" seems to come from the Latin word for "milk" or "milky," due to the color of the sap from this flower. As for the symbolism, poppies come in several colors, but I assume you are asking about the widely-known red poppy. It has been linked it with sleep (the sap from this flower has a sedative effect). In Victorian England, the color of the red poppy symbolized not just deep sleep but also loss (from a loved one dying). Interestingly, in some cultures, especially in Asia, it does not represent loss or sleep, but rather, deep and passionate romantic love. And in a number of cultures, including Europe and North America, the red poppy has become the symbol of remembrance, especially remembrance of those who died during a war.

Why do Veterans of Foreign Wars VFW volunteers give you a paper poppy when you give them a donation?
Its basis is both historical and poetic. The World War I-era poem "In Flanders Fields," by John McCrae, is set in the fields of Flanders, Belgium, where so many of the war dead were buried. The poppy is the VFW's official memorial flower. As a fundraising tool, the Franco-American Children's League distributed them to benefit children in the devasted areas of France and Belgium following WWI. The poppy has come to represent the sacrifices made by all American service members. Today, the VFW uses the poppy--theirs is called the "Buddy Poppy"--to raise money for veterans welfare and other charitable giving, including the VFW National Home for Children in Eaton Rapids, Michigan. Others: The National World War I Memorial in Kansas City, Missouri, features a display of poppies on the walk into its museum. The poppies represent fallen service members from all nations in the Great War. The poppy is a prominent symbol of Remembrance Day in Canada.
