Beans, climbing beans or peas, grapes, sweet potatoes... those if you want something that produces nice flowers and fruits. Otherwise you could always just use an ivy
Sweet potatoes climb? TIL, that's neat.
Yeah you can trellis them, a lot of times they won't make the tuber and will just be a leafy cover with pretty flowers. Bonus, the leaves are delicious!
This is potentially even better. I'm used to potatos being treated as minorly invasive. Is this not the case for sweet potatoes? Pretty flowers and edible leaves are neat.
I'm in the PNW, US, they aren't considered invasive, they grow easily, but won't outcompete other stuff. Mind, we are talking about Sweet Potatoes (Ipomoea batatas) not nightshade potatoes (Solanum tuberosum), which are an entire different group of plants, and those don't climb
