Eight local garden clubs, including the Elverson Garden Club, will present a National Garden Club Standard Flower Show titled "Inspiration - Longwood" under the auspices of the Visitor Education Department of Longwood Gardens Inc., 1001 Longwood Road, Kennett Square. The flower show will be open to the public with admission to Longwood Gardens on Saturday, Oct. 5, from 1 to 9 p.m. and on Sunday, Oct. 6, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
