I'm planning the same thing, but just kind of decided on morning glories.
From what I've seen of them, it seems like they will do a decent job. Yeah?

I have a 5 foot high chain link fence that I would like to plant some kind
of ivy or something that will grow up the fence and give me some privacy,
I would like it to stay green for as long as possible into the colder
months.
I live in the north east and I am not sure what to plant if anything.
Maybe something
that also will flower? Thank you for any info.
