People who appear on TV seem to be wearing poppies very early this year

What is the protocol for this and who decides these matters. I usually
wear a red poppy during the week in which the 11th day falls in.

I see it as a poppy marketing ploy. Get some people on TV to wear
poppies early and the sale of poppies will start early. By the 11th
day new poppies will be needed.
