The small, brilliantly red poppies are probably the world's most popular wildflower.
The Red Poppy is the small-size annual species that is sometimes called "Shirley Poppy", "Flanders Poppy," "American Legion Poppy", and in England, "Corn Poppy."
The Red Poppy is native to most all of Eurasia and North Africa, but today is best known for its range in Central Europe, where it became permanently linked with war. During World War I, the fields of Flanders (western Belgium) and other areas, experienced four full years of unrelenting war and destruction. An astounding number of approximately 10 million soldiers were killed, and another 20 million wounded. Battle losses were greater than any war before or since.
The once bucolic meadows of Flanders had long been graced by the brilliant red wildflowers each spring and summer, but during the Great War, the poppies disappeared. Since they are annuals, and grow quickly from seed each spring, the constant trampling and bombing of the battlefields simply stopped the famous bloom for four full seasons. When the war was over, and these wildflowers were able to bloom again, the display was spectacular. Actual seed counts were taken, and over 2,500 poppy seeds per square foot were found.
Obviously, the post-war, blood red bloom from the fields of battle had a huge impact on all who saw or heard about it. But surely the most lasting memorial is the famous poem by Canadian battle surgeon/poet, John McCrae. Like The Star Spangled Banner, written in Baltimore Harbor during the bombardment, this poem was written on the spot, as he gazed at fresh graves of his friends and comrades, and poppies "blowing" in the wind.
Red Poppy is the symbol of the American Legion, handed out for Memorial Day, and worn in lapels for the same symbolism in Great Britain on Remembrance Day. It's obvious why two of the common names of the wildflower today are "Flanders Poppy", and in the United States, "American Legion Poppy."
Red Poppy is a wildflower gardener's favorite since it grows so easily and successfully in meadows. Almost any sunny spot is fine, and though it prefers neutral to alkaline soils, it is quite adaptable. The only condition it won't tolerate is very heavy clay. It develops a tap root, and if the soil is very heavy, it is almost impossible for it to drive down its tap root in time for good bloom.
