Settlers called it fairy candle, for the tall white flower spike that sways above the leaves, sometimes two feet of it. Cohosh is an Algonquian word, and the plant also went by black snakeroot.
It is Actaea racemosa, a woodland perennial of eastern North America in the buttercup family. The root is dark, hard and bitter.
