Poppies planted in the moat at the Tower of London

 

London: Ceramic poppies planted at Tower of London to mark World War I ...

 

 

Ceramic poppies fill the Tower of London moat to commemorate WWI ...

 

 

This is only the first 100 thousand or so , it will totally fill the moat by the 14th November, with over 800 thousand ceramic poppies, it quite took my breathe away.

You can buy the poppies from today.  I bought one earlier on the Tower of London website and got one for my parents too as will be a unique Christmas gift.  

 

The poppies will all be sent out after its all dismantled in November I think.  The last poppy is being placed on Armistice Day 11th November.
