Mother's Day in NYC is nearly upon us, so don't forget to make that Sunday brunch reservation and order those last-minute flower deliveries! And speaking of florals, the folks over at Max—the HBO streaming arm that's home to popular titles like Hacks, The Pitt, And Just Like That... and more—will be breaking out the blooms in celebration of mom this Sunday, May 11, with a flower exhibit honoring some of television's most iconic matriarchs.

From 10am to 4pm on Sunday, head over to the Chelsea Triangle in the Meatpacking District (located on the north side of 14th Street along Ninth Avenue) for the "Mothers of Max" exhibit, a flower installation featuring sculptures of HBO's famous TV moms.
Among the onscreen mothers who will be transformed via bloom and blossom are The White Lotus' lorazepam-loving Victoria Ratliff (memorably played by Parker Posey in the series); Games of Thrones' very own Mother of Dragons, Daenerys Targaryen, played by Emilia Clarke across eight seasons of the fantasy-drama; the O.G. mob wife Carmela Soprano (in a triple-Emmy-winning turn by Brooklyn gal Edie Falco) from The Sopranos; and the legendary Las Vegas stand-up diva Deborah Vance, fabulously depicted by Jean Smart on Hacks.
Created in partnership with popular female-founded floral design studio East Olivia, the stunning floral installations are the efforts of renowned Colombia-born, Miami-based artist Federico Uribe, who is famed for transforming everyday objects (everything from shotgun casings to leather sneakers to, in this case, beautiful plants) into colorful figures.
During the free and open-to-the-public event, fans can take photos of the unexpected floral showcase and also craft their own bouquets of fresh flowers and botanicals directly from the "Mothers of Max" sculptures to take home—and give to mom, of course.
