They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

Lest we Forget

Rosemary for ANZAC Day, poppy for Remembrance Day. Rosemary grows on the hills at Gallipoli.

A common mistake. We wear rosemary over here on ANZAC Day and our red poppies come out on November 11th. A wounded digger is believed to have brought home a sprig of rosemary and planted a living connection to Gallipoli. As to the truth of the story, I have no idea. But a lovely one anyway.
