Poppies at the tower of london

[Portlon]

how long are the poppies at the tower of london.

[Ladygooner]

Til Rememberance Day 11th November I think

[seemster]

Yes, till 11th

[Applespider]

I thought that they only planted the last one on 11th. There are so many that I can't imagine that they'll all be 'uninstalled' within a day or two. It might also be a little less manic going on 12th/13th!

All the poppies have been sold, the moat is filling up fast and

the final flower will be planted on November 11.

I haven't seen any poppy sellers around Dulwich and I usually buy some every year .

I went and had a look at this yesterday. Absolutely magnificent sight, but just to let people know, if you do go then the crowds are surprisingly huge, and I mean thousands and thousands of people (when it was pouring down with rain)and it is difficult to move about. There are crowd control PCSO's on the streets as well as extra LUL staff controlling Tower Hill station.

We went around 8pm recently (also in the pouring rain). There were not so many people around then - although still difficult to move around with all the umbrellas up. Not the best conditions for photos, but I got a couple of good ones.
