    Answer

    Dear joshl, these plants are Cardamine diphylla (two-leaved toothwort), a native member of the Brassicaceae. When they produce flowers, they will have a raceme of white flowers with four petals each. These are most frequently found on riverside terraces and on rich, rocky hillsides.
