Bougainvillea is a natural for SoCal. Mandevilla grows well, too. If
you don't want a vine, what about a few oleanders? That's what they use
in the medians to shield cars going in opposite directions from oncoming
headlights.

Red vines like trumpet or the pones mentioned above will attract
hummingbirds, too.
