Poppies are an especially beautiful flower, and they are commonly found in gardens and fields. Due to the small size of the poppy seeds and how they are dispersed, these flowers can spread quickly, and this is why you may have seen gorgeous photos of entire poppy fields. This contrasts from many other perennials and flowers as they typically grow in concentrated areas.

Poppies are widely used in floral arrangements and wreaths due to their gorgeous colours and availability. The most common poppy variety is red, and this is the colour we associate with Remembrance Day. Therefore, poppy wreaths are the symbol of this occasion, and you can get memorial wreaths bursting with poppies to pay tribute.

Aside from memorial wreaths, poppies make fantastic floral wreaths, and they are often combined with greenery like grass, wheat, leaves, and stems. The combination of greens, yellows, and reds looks beautiful, and they are some of the most attractive spring and summer wreaths available.

We have a varied selection of poppy wreaths available for different occasions and seasons and these are the perfect choice if you want to make a country theme in your home or love flowers and greenery. You can also get supporting accessories such as wreath hangers to proudly display your poppy wreath on your front door.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best way to look after your poppy wreath?

Natural poppy wreaths require care and attention otherwise the flowers will wilt and die quicker. Basic maintenance includes spraying the flowers and greenery with water regularly. The best way to do this is to use a small spray bottle.

Although poppy wreaths are fine for the outdoors, we advise not leaving them in direct sunlight for too long. It could be a great idea to have a stock of flowers handy too so that you can replace the poppies if they start to wilt and fade.

How do you hang your wreath?

There are several ways you can hang your wreath with poppies and some of the easiest methods include magnetic hooks, command strips, and ribbons. These allow you to hang your wreath in a few seconds with no screws or nails required to mark your door.

The other main method is to use a wreath hanger. This has two hooks facing in opposite directions at the end of a strip of plastic or metal. You place one hook over the top of your door while it is open, and the other is used to hang your poppy wreath from.

What’s the ideal size of poppy wreath?

It’s important to get the right size poppy wreath so it doesn’t look too much or, so it isn’t swallowed up by your front door. The easiest way to get the right size wreath is to measure the width of your door. Make sure you do this using the internal measurements i.e., not including the frame.

It is commonly agreed that an ideal wreath size is 5-10 inches narrower than your door. So, if you measured your door internally and it was 30 inches, a great size range for your wreath would be 20-25 inches.

Artificial vs Real - Which is the best?

People often believe that real wreaths are simply better because they use natural materials and don’t look “fake” like artificial wreaths. There is some truth in this, and real wreaths will always look a tiny bit better, however, the difference isn’t huge.

Artificial wreaths have the benefit of needing no maintenance on the other hand, and they last much longer than real wreaths. You have to water most types of real wreath including ones with poppies, and eventually the flowers will die.
