During the two week Festival of Fruit and Flowers the city of Ambato comes alive with parades, pyrotechnic displays, exhibitions and copious amounts of peach-flavored wine. Fruit of some sort is always in season in Ecuador, but the fruit in Ambato – particularly pears and apples – are at their very best in February. Other fruits that are almost always available include plums, papayas, blackberries, all varieties of citrus, many varieties of passion fruit, mangoes, figs and bananas. In addition to a large variety of other flowers, the most stunning roses grow and bloom profusely in the volcanic soil.
