Kate Middleton was there with Prince William and Prince Harry as they paid their respects  to Britain’s heroes of the Great War . 
 
The installation comprises hundreds of the ceramic plants and the royal visitors each planted their own commemorative poppy. The Tower project pays tribute to the 888,246 British and Commonwealth servicemen and women who died in the war.
