In England Wales, and Northern Ireland remembrance day poppies are mostly paper representatives of the flat Earl Haig attributed design, a flat two petal poppy with a leaf made in Richmond Surrey. (The Car Poppy sold by the Royal British Legion has no leaf). In Scotland remembrance day poppies have four petals and no design has a leaf, they are made by poppyscotland. Countries around the world have other designs. The only significance of the leaf, or no leaf poppy is that it may give a clue to the country where the poppy was, or was not, manufactured. There are no rules governing how, or where to wear a poppy, nor the angle of the leaf if present.

The entire poppy is a symbol of remembrance and comes from the poem, "In Flanders Fields." There is no special meaning for the green leaf as the poppy as a whole is the symbol for remembrance.

The green leaf on the poppy does not represent anything independently from the poppy itself. The poppy is used as a memorial flower for veterans.
