Basically Poppy's one asset as support is the wall stun. Not only does it enable terrifying damage at level 1, but you can potentially intimidate opponents very well by lurking in the bushes waiting to punish anyone stepping too far out. And then you can "support" with your ult as you tower dive the helpless enemy and take no damage while your ADC wreaks havoc.

But if you are on the defensive instead of on the offensive, it doesn't work as well, because she has no ranged stun, no slow, no heal, etc. All she can do is try to draw aggro away from the ADC, or try to counterattack. It's a win/lose lane, but that's not all that different from other aggressive supports as far as I've heard.
