Need a tall plant for bright shade (no sun!)


Question
Hello - My house is L-shaped, where the corner faces the North.  I ripped out the grass there, because it was dying without sun, and planted several varieties of shade perennials.  My perennials are doing great, but the problem is, they're all about the same height!  

Can you recommend a tall perennial that likes bright shade for a backdrop?  I currently have yellow waxbells, ferns, toad lilies, bleeding hearts, and small azalea bushes.  I need something that will grow to about 5', if possible.  I don't care at this point if it flowers.

I'm in zone 6.

Thanks!
-Lily
