The remembrance poppy (a Papaver rhoeas) has been used since 1920 to commemorate soldiers who have died in war. In England, Wales, and Northern Ireland, the poppy has two red petals, a green paper leaf and is mounted on a green plastic stem (as seen here) Etiquette: The "The Legion organises a fund-raising drive each year in the weeks before Remembrance Sunday, during which artificial red poppies, meant to be worn on clothing, are offered to the public in return for a charitable donation. The poppies are manufactured at the Poppy Factory in Richmond." Wikipedia "Due to the extent of ground disturbance in warfare during World War I, corn poppies bloomed in between the trench lines and no man's lands on the Western front. Poppies stand as a prominent feature of "In Flanders Fields", one of the most frequently quoted English-language poems composed by front-line personnel during the First World War. During the 20th century, the wearing of a poppy at and before Remembrance Day each year became an established custom in most western countries." Wikipedia
