Poppy/draft

A poppy is an attractive flowering plant in the poppy family, Papaveraceae. Most species of Papaveraceae are called poppies: all species of the subfamilies Papaveroideae and Eschscholziodeae, some species of the subfamily Chelidonioideae, and some species of the genera Hypecoum and Pteridophyllum. These genera sometimes are included in Papaveraceae, else segregated in their own families. Species of Papaveraceae not called poppies include members of the subfamily Platystemonoideae and the family Fumariaceae (when included in Papaveraceae).

The opium poppy, Papaver somniferum is the source of opium and poppy straw, which provide morphine, codeine, [...], and other alkaloids. Its seeds are eaten, and used in medical diagnostics, and its seed oil has culinary and industrial uses.

The corn poppy, Papaver rhoeas, is a common grain field [...] in Europe and elsewhere. It has multiple symbolic meanings. Because of its use in the poem In Flanders Fields has come to represent fallen soldiers in World War I and subsequent wars. Large-flowered ornamental cultivars are called Shirley poppies.
