71 Beautiful Landscape Designs For Mobile Homes
https://mobilehomeliving.org/71-landscape-designs-for-mobile-homes/
My daughter has ran a small bed on either side of her entryways and it is very cute. She has a variety of plants: roses, elephant ears, purple heart, can't remember the rest. She lined the bed with brick.
I would take photos of areas you want to landscape and take to a local nursery and ask them for suggestions because of your planting zone
you can plant low growing shrubs depending on how much sun you get or if it is in the shade, you can use seasonal plants, you could plant knockout roses...
I would add a shrub on either side of the steps. Add flower bed with tall in back and shorter plants close to but not touching mobile. Finish with pea gravel or mulch and pavers. Put a bench by the will with pavers leading to it and perhaps a bird feeder and bird bath surrounded by annuals like geraniums, impatiens or petunias that bloom all season.

Where are you located might indicate possible options.
That would determine the best plant or shrubs to suggest. Most plants success depend on their hardness to geographic planting zones presenting weather conditions. This information could give us more clue to give you the best suggestions for plant success!
Additionally for the best local professional advice
I would highly suggest contacting your cooperative extension. These offices are manned by volunteer master gardeners on site there waiting to answer the communities questions that know your local situation quite well.
Master gardeners are required to volunteer back designated hours ( plus continuing education) each year to maintain MG certification -this community outreach and education is their goal
I would dig out on the 2 sides of the stairs and add some perennials - like maybe a hydrangea bush on each side? Then depending on the layout of where the mobile home is and if people can see the front, I'd make a bigger garden in the front surroning the weeping willow. But how big is that tree? Could you put 2 shrubs on either side of it (like a boxwood) and sprinkle in some bright annuals like petunias and merigolds. You may want to use a plastic hedging and ground cloth to give it a clean look and miniminze weeds. Recover it with mulch each year.
You could put stones down, use potted planters
