poppies
Scarlet field flowers
Poppies is the plural of poppy, a flowering plant with delicate, papery petals in vivid reds, oranges, and yellows.
The opium poppy yields narcotic compounds used in painkillers and heroin.
Red poppies are symbols of remembrance for soldiers killed in war, especially in Commonwealth countries on Remembrance Day: She wore a poppy on her lapel.
