Labrador Tea plant, Near Black Clough, Bleaklow.just starting to flower
the above 5photos are of Labrador Tea plant - Ledum Groenlandicum ,we have 2 examples - one on Outer Edge (lower photo) & the other close to Dean Head Stones, there are only another 4 growing in the Peak District, believed to have started from one plant introduced from Kew Gardens in the early 1900's as game cover.The flowers give off a very strong scent that attract insects in such a concentration that small flies will be killed by it.This plant is poisonous and also a protected species
