At 11am on the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918, the guns on the Western Front in Europe fell silent and an armistice was declared. World War I was over.
Wolf poppies grew abundantly on the bloody battlefields of Flanders in Belgium and still cover the landscape there today. They were made famous by the poem 'In Flanders Fields', written by Canadian army doctor John McCrae in 1915 after he saw wolf poppies on the battlefield after losing a friend during the Second Battle of Ypres.
Proceeds from the sale of this wolf poppy will be donated to a military charity, this activity is provided by the British manufacturer.
