Hello! great picture here! I think this is one of the most confused species out there. I originally thought it was blue cohosh as well, but blue cohosh has green pedals versus purple. I believe this is a variation called giant blue cohosh (caulophyllum giganteum). Google it and check it out! :)
Thanks Mike! I appreciate the correction!
Beautiful!
