We have this area that is in the back that shows some outdoor stuff my husband doesn’t want to get rid of and I would like to cover it from view from our pond and pool area. The people that used to own the house had left someleft over playground Climbing stuff thought I would make use of them I know I still need to level and raise them up some but Any suggestions for some tall full plants tropical looking that would look nice and grow in zone 7b
You can use the fame and add material that you can't see through, like landscape fabric, to "hide" what is behind the trees. That could be the junk storage area.
if not plants or while waiting for plants to mature...add lattice to the back or front side of what you have in the photo.
Here are a couple of links that might help:

WHAT'S THE BEST WAY TO GET RID OF ALL THE SPIDER WEBS????
uh??,just asking that is a back yard??, kidding"", the best I ,have done has been to put up a white party tent, adding bucket's ,painted of course, with tall flowers ,and small mums ,planted close by tent, put tiny party lites, around tent, in evening or during day I keep a set of out door chairs, an igloo ice bucket, on a stand, with plastice food plates, and have soft music playing from wi fi ,stereo, it gives the impresson we have guests, except on sundays 'that is when family visits ,,I even put out a small wading pool for the children, if warm ,or fill with rock's ,and decorate as per season, just an Idea''hope you find something here may give you an idea'''
You already have beautiful trees and they aren't hiding anything. Just take down the yellow rail thing and put up a wood fence with a gate and store all the junk behind it. Then you can add some shade loving plants in front of the fence.
