What is this bush, can anyone ID this plant?
I now have two of these lovely shrubs that started blooming in August and is still covered in pretty white flowers. I hope someone can tell me what it is. I did not plant them. It is about 4 feet tall.

Wow, beautiful. The only volunteers I get are weeds. Hope someone knows what it is
It looks like it might be White Meadowsweet, but I can't really make out the flowers too well.
I have a couple of possibilities, but I need some help. Where do you live? Location makes a big difference.
From the look of the leaves I would guess this IS a weed. One of my dad's neighbors had a beautiful plant growing in their back yard. P If you take a good size piece of this or a really good picture of it to your local county extension office I can almost guarantee they will know what it is if it's indigenous to your area.
WEED
All domesticated flowers were weeds first.
Be careful because if this is giant hogweed you don't want to touch it! I have attached a li k and a photo.

As a Master Gardener/ Master Naturalist it would be helpful to have a better picture which would include the leaves with the leaf pattern. Also, as someone else mentioned you could take a section of the plant with additional pictures to your local extension office and they should be able to help with identification.
It could be white snakeroot/ ageratina altissima. Google images for that plant to compare.
From the blossom and the leaves, I think it looks like a "native" plant called thorough wort. Fall bloomer here at my place in TX. Attracts butterflies and many interesting bees and insects.
Structure looks like Mistflower or something similar in the composite family - a wildflower.
It looks like a native wild in the thoroughwort/mistflower/boneset/agertina family. Lucky you! They're pretty, deer don't eat them (toxic to mammals), and the pollinating bees and butterflies love them.
