The poppy is an agricultural weed and is a symbol of Remembrance Day, a memorial day when artificial ones are worn. It became a Flanders poppy that represents the blood of those killed in battle in the fields around Flanders in Belgium during the first World War. It also represents the Second World War and many other conflicts observed by Commonwealth countries
