Hi, I found this plant growing in moist woods in New Hampshire, it gets some morning sun but is otherwise in good shade. Thanks for looking :-)

It looks like Hesperis matronalis, Dame's Rocket.

I thought that the flower looks a lot like the hesperis also but the leaves have long petioles, the basal leaves are wrong, etc.
