My front house used to be red brick and mustard yellow with huge overgrown evergreens along the front, so I’ve made some progress. After a drainage project, I threw some plants in that I had, including a lot of lilies, irises, and a variety of hostas. On the right side of the house, I put trios of hosts each of those windows, but the irises and lilies are taking over. I planted the maple trees to get a little height, but there’s too many of them and the middle one is blocking light into the downstairs. I’m in zone five, and this picture shows pretty much what the light is like in the summer. My house is facing north. I would appreciate any suggestions. TY!!

The house looks beautiful in white. Great front yard grass too. Consider relocating the maples trees as you don’t want them this close to the house and they will become very tall trees interfering with the house. Consider something small to not block lights downstairs. Plant maples in the front yard. Consider a bush to cover the black hose on right attached to house.
Some color would be great against white house like roses or ornamental grass.
How about this
