<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Charliebfc, post: 184847, member: 3230&quot;]Very nice&nbsp; out of the suggestions I go for window valance&nbsp; or part of a parade float,</p><p><br /></p><p>Red poppy are known has corn poppy and was seen has a bountiful harvest of corn when they appeared </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>The Greeks have a legend that explains how the poppy came to be called the Corn Poppy. The poppy was created by the god of sleep, Somnus. You see Ceres, the goddess of grain, was having a hard time falling asleep. She was exhausted from searching for her lost daughter; still she couldn&#039;t fall asleep and had no energy to help the corn grow. Somnus cooked up a concoction and got her to take it, soon she was sleeping like a baby. Rested and relaxed Ceres could then turn her attention to the corn which began to grow. Ever since that time the people believed that poppies growing around cornfields ensure a bountiful harvest. And so was born the Corn Rose, or as we call it today the Corn Poppy</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&amp;source=web&amp;rct=j&amp;url=http://botanical.com/site/column_rita/flanders.html&amp;ved=0ahUKEwjC7PXF1oHQAhVlD8AKHVM4BhEQFgh6MAg&amp;usg=AFQjCNHf-awZfnmDBX57l319ZYg5osRZQQ&amp;sig2=NhHXdtOKJmii5i4RX2a1wg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&amp;source=web&amp;rct=j&amp;url=http://botanical.com/site/column_rita/flanders.html&amp;ved=0ahUKEwjC7PXF1oHQAhVlD8AKHVM4BhEQFgh6MAg&amp;usg=AFQjCNHf-awZfnmDBX57l319ZYg5osRZQQ&amp;sig2=NhHXdtOKJmii5i4RX2a1wg" rel="nofollow">https://www.google.co.uk/url?</a></p><p><a href="https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&amp;source=web&amp;rct=j&amp;url=http://botanical.com/site/column_rita/flanders.html&amp;ved=0ahUKEwjC7PXF1oHQAhVlD8AKHVM4BhEQFgh6MAg&amp;usg=AFQjCNHf-awZfnmDBX57l319ZYg5osRZQQ&amp;sig2=NhHXdtOKJmii5i4RX2a1wg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&amp;source=web&amp;rct=j&amp;url=http://botanical.com/site/column_rita/flanders.html&amp;ved=0ahUKEwjC7PXF1oHQAhVlD8AKHVM4BhEQFgh6MAg&amp;usg=AFQjCNHf-awZfnmDBX57l319ZYg5osRZQQ&amp;sig2=NhHXdtOKJmii5i4RX2a1wg" rel="nofollow">sa=t&amp;source=web&amp;rct=j&amp;url=http://botanical.com/site/column_rita/flanders.html&amp;ved=0ahUKEwjC7PXF1oHQAhVlD8AKHVM4BhEQFgh6MAg&amp;usg=AFQjCNHf-awZfnmDBX57l319ZYg5osRZQQ&amp;sig2=NhHXdtOKJmii5i4RX2a1wg</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Do you live in a area for growing corn ,if so maybe the festival float fits in with a harvest festival, </p><p><br /></p><p>And the women&nbsp; could represent spring or the Greek goddess mentioned in the link ,[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
