About National Poppy Day

The red poppy is an internationally recognized symbol of sacrifice and has been worn by Americans since World War I to honor those who served and died for our country in all wars. It reminds Americans of the sacrifices made by our veterans while protecting our freedoms. Wear a poppy to honor the fallen and support the living. In 1920, the poppy became the official flower of The American Legion Family. In 2017, the United States Congress designated the Friday before Memorial Day as National Poppy Day®.
