I've looked the internet (though not exhaustively) and I cannot seem to
identify this wildflower that I've snapped a photo of. It was found
growing in large patches in a mountainous, deciduous forest in New
Hampshire's Upper Valley area.

Any assistance/answers you could provide would be highly appreciated.
Thanks :)

it's Fringed Polygala (Polygaya pauciflora) aka 'gaywings'.
it's a member of the milkwort family.
