Why does the poppy leaf have to be at 11 o'clock?
There is no official rules on how the wear the poppy. The leaf appears on English poppies but not on Scottish ones. Also the Royal British Legion has produced metals pins and some years the leaf has been at the 1 o'clock position. When I was in the army, not once were we told that the leaf had to be at the 11 o'clock position. This is a 'legend' that has come to fruition over the last few years. Maybe the British Legion will make a rule one day regarding the leaf but as of today there is no ruling or etiquette regarding the leaf.
