    Hello, I am trying to determine if our forested hillside of pretty white flowers are actually weeds or a good plant to keep. I've attached photos. Any help would be much appreciated! Thank you!

    I have a si,ial but shorter type like this. Are the leaves more purple toned in the spring? Is it related to the cohosh family????
