  1. Leyla, I hadn’t really looked at this pretty little flower before but it would make a nice Remembrance Poppy for Veterans’ or Memorial Day. (Red petals with a black center) Brits often wear red poppies in remembrance of war veterans. Coincidentally, I received the posting for this card on what is considered VE Day, Victory over Europe when WWII ended in Europe.
