Has anyone had success with this vine in Wash. DC suburbs/Zone 7?

I'm tempted to try one this year.

I planted one about 4 or 5 or 6 years ago and it has not leaped yet!
They say first year it creeps, second year it leaps...maybe that is
not the actual phrase. I am hoping it takes off this year because I'm
so tired of the neighbor kid (7 years) jumping on her trampoline and
wanting to have discussions with me as I take a soak in the hot tub
nekkid at night. Doh.

I prefer the Schizophragma 'Moonlight' over other climbing hydrangeas.
Where do you want to buy it from? I got mine with a coupon from White
Flower Farms. Maybe it's just too hot here in Texas and it goes
dormant along with everything else in the summer.
