Seeing Red: Why the 'Harry Potter' Stars Wore Red Flowers

While fans of the "Harry Potter" series headed to the Web to catch the London red carpet premiere of the latest movie, other folk wondered why these actors wore matching red poppy boutonnieres. Daniel Radcliffe (21), Emma Watson (20), and Rupert Grint (22) - they play Harry Potter and his best friends, Hermione and Ron, all donned the red blooms. These guys were joined by attendees Ralph Fiennes and Tom Felton and J.K. Rowling. Not just because they looked dapper, the flowers have a special meaning in Britain. It was Remembrance Day, or Poppy Day in the U.K.
