    I am looking to plant a vine along the edge of my lot to cover a chain-linked fence. I am trying to cover the chain-linked fence in an effort to beautify our backyard to *hopefully* sell the house sometime this summer. It needs to be relatively non-intrusive (my neighbors have a small annual bed on the other side of the fence that I don't want to destroy). Some of the fence is also near some mature lilac bushes. I would like something that flowers, but it is not necessary. One part of the fence is in full sun and the opposite fence is mostly in shade due to the lilac bushes.

    Can anyone suggest one/some vines that would be appropriate for these areas? Thank you in advance for your help!

    Try a couple of Passiflora caerulea which can spread to over 5 metres in one summer...
