The grass is very sparse and dry at the moment. People were asking why they weren't staying there and grass cutting being a problem was mentioned....and I think it should be short term.
I don't think they would withstand the bad weather either but I'm sure there will be a huge demand for them.
When they are all in place it will be an amazing sight.....it is now...and so touching...x

Morning, Dee and Jan......People are being asked to become volunteers to plant the poppies......if I lived nearer I'd do it.
If you google Paul Cummins you can read the story of what inspired him to create this.....the living will of a soldier.....
They are only on sale during the installation so if you want to buy you need to reserve one.....
I'm in London again next month....I'll try to get back to see them then..it's going to be a spectacular sight.

'Ordered' ours today as I understand it they will plant so many a day until 11th november,888246 poppies one for each soldier killed, and after that they will be posted to you. 100,000 already bought and after production costs (£8million) 10% will go to 6 military charities. Once all costs are covered the entire surplus will be distributed - potential income is £22.2 million, so could be a lot of money
