The message k
from Sacha contains these words:

Coming back to this rather late - my step daughter drove up to Stonehenge
last night and said there was a huge field of white poppies, stretching as
far as the eye could see. None of us know why such a vast quantity of white
poppies is being grown but in that number, it must be as a crop, surely?

Possibly for oil?

for decorative purposes when dried.

But why white. White is unusual. Only seedheads are used for decoration,
so the colour is unimportant.
