Howdy, Folks... (I know, I know, long time no see!)

I've admired this plant in my woods for decades but never bothered to identify it. Recently friends of mine found it on their property and asked me about it. I've Googled, snoogled, and am now bafoodled. (Is there really a word "snoogled?")

Does anyone have an idea what this is? I've been going bald for several years now and in the past week have been pulling my hair out trying to identify this. (It's not a pretty picture! Please help before my brain is exposed.) Sticking tongue out
By the way, the leaves are somewhat ovoid but nearly lanceolate, green on top with a beautiful purple underside. It's personality is that of a demure wallflower but when acknowledged it wants to shine and strutt its stuff. (Sorry, it's m' mind, ya know! ) Smiling

Shoe (offering a big howdy and tribute to all you 'old-timers' monitoring this forum. Big time thanks!)
