Default Crossvine in a tree

[delurk]

Hi all!

I have a couple of native cedars, one of which is bare up to about 10 feet.
I was considering planting a crossvine at the base and letting it climb.
It's not a twiner, so it shouldn't girdle the tree, and if what I've been
reading is accurate, if it gets out of control, I can just cut its main
vine back and kill everything above it.

Has anybody tried this? Advice? Informed opinions?
Alternate tree-friendly flowering vines?

Thanks,
Richard
