Tom Tulloch-Marshall Posted 10 July , 2020 Share Posted 10 July , 2020 Can anybody tell me exactly what the RBL "poppies" on their wreaths are made of ? Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travers61 Posted 10 July , 2020 Share Posted 10 July , 2020 Have had no luck with this one on line, except that its paper. If its any help this interesting BBC News item shows the Red paper roll being fed into the poppy making machine. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/uk-34600863/how-a-remembrance-day-poppy-is-made Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is absolutely 100% one thing that RBL poppies on current wreaths are NOT made of - and that is paper ! It isn't cotton either - some kind of synthetic material - what though ?

Malcolm Linham Posted 11 July , 2020 Share Posted 11 July , 2020 Tom The below article refers to the poppies in the wreaths being made of fabric , unfortunately it doesn't explain any further.
