    We're getting ready to put up a 6' tall lattice "fence" for privacy... to block our neighbor's patio and hot tub. I'm not sure exactly how long the fence will be... I'd guess 30 feet or so...

    Would love suggestions for fast growing, ever-green and hopefully non-invasive vines to cover this area...

    Thought I would combine vines with some clematis plants.

    The area faces south and pretty much gets sun all day.

    Thanking you in advance for your suggestions...

    Crossvine, Bignonia capreolata - some really great cultivars out there now.

    Evergreen clematis, Clematis armandii.

    Jackson vine, Smilax smallii (no thorns).
