Red Field Poppies


Red field poppies also known as Papaver rhoeas, Corn Poppy, Field Poppy, Flanders Poppy, The large, four-petaled, red flowers of the common poppy have been adopted as a symbol of remembrance since 11th November 1921 when the Royal British Legion held its first ‘Poppy Day’. The practice of wearing artificial poppies has been adopted in many countries on Remembrance Day, in honor and remembrance of veterans and those who have lost their lives during wars.
