"Nelly Moser" is a type of clematis and it is easy to grow. Produces large, flat flower 6-8" in diameter. The majority of the clematis vines are good in zone 8. English ivy is nice but produces no flowers. There are several honeysuckle vines which are good. Some are the Japanese honeysuckle, common honeysuckle and the blue honeysuckle.
