For a fast-growing vine to cover your fence or trellis, try using silverlacevine. This deciduous vine is very easy to propagate.

It is a vigorous grower that can either take over an area or be short lived in northern regions. Silverlacevine is a popular but somewhat controversial twining climber due to its extremely vigorous growth habit. This makes it an ideal plant to cover extensive areas quickly, but it can also grow too vigorously and be considered invasive. The silverlacevine also needs the occasional trim but now that it's established, it's pretty low maintenance too. To finish the area around the dry creek bed, we covered the narrow pathway between it and the fence with mulch. Mulch keeps the mud and weeds at bay.
