Default Indoor climber for low light- is this possible?

I'd really like to find a climber for this situation. Its a double-glazed
plate glass window about 2m high and one meter wide, its in what is best
described as a small porch, unheated but it never gets _really_ cold.
(Pelargoniums survive all winter).

This window faces west but is partially shaded- it gets a few hours of sun in
summer but at this time of year, no direct sunlight.

I've got some very stiff plastic 2" square netting and could put that over
the window, and then grow something up starting from a large-ish pot on the
floor. I'd really like to find a climber that can live happily in such
conditions and that grows roughly 2m tall. A non-flowering climber would be
ok, inconspicuous flowers would be ok. White flowers would be preferable if
there were any (everything else in this space has either white flowers or no
flowers). Scented leaves or scented white flowers would be ideal. Anything
that would grow there would be worth considering.

Any ideas for what to try would be most welcome. I really can't think of
anything, but there must be *something*, surely!
