Fast growing flowering vine?

I live in South central wisconsin and also live in an aprtment. My patio bumps against my neighbors and would like to put a trellis in between. What is a fast growing vine? It would be nice if it flowers but it doesnt have to.

Reply:what about Campsis.... trumpet vine?

It is fast growing and it does flower. Yellow or an orangey tone.
Reply:Moonflower or Halls Honeysuckle
Reply:moonflowers! They are very pretty and grow fast. You can even buy the little seed packets.
Reply:For a perenial (a vine that doesn't die over the winter) try a Cardinal Vine also called a Hummingbird vine. It is very fast growing and has small tubular red/orange flowers in the summer that attract hummingbirds. I had one around the front door of the house but it grew too large so last year I cut down all the excess branching vines and replanted the major stem in the backyard. By the end of the summer it had branched all out and flowered.
