In the passage Mason tries to find a good present to his mother, he finally bought something (gardening supplies and flowers), Mason was afraid thinking if his mother would like it or not.
So the climax is: Mason sneaked behind her and placed the gift on the table. He held out the bouquet and shouted, "Happy Birthday, Mama!" His mother was startled, but she accepted the bouquet with a smile. As she began to open the package, Mason could feel nervousness creeping up on him again. His mom remained silent as she removed the contents of the package.
The resolution is that she loved it.
