Russian ivy - grows like wildfire (though you won't get your screen in
the first year). It's a terrific plant, which after a year or so will
look like the Invasion of the Triffids if you don't keep it trimmed.

Others on this group have poo-pooed it as an invasive, boring nuisance.
Nonsense - it's easily maintained if you can be bothered (one or two
severe trims a year), is attractive (if you like bushy curves and
tendrils); foamy white flowers (which have a mild fragrance); I was
hoping mine would encourage birds to nest but I think it's too close to
my back door. I bought it to be a screen: it's worked excellently at
that.
