What is this? 5-petal very tiny white flower clusters, opposite
toothed leaves, looks like (spring's) garlic mustard from a

It's probably right in front of my eyes in Newcomb's but I
haven't been able to pick it out.

I've tried over a couple weeks, hoping it would evolve into

Bingo, thanks.

Newcomb's put it under "parts indistinguishable," where I, being
nearsighted, have microscopic up-close vision and clearly count 5 parts.
