Fastest growing climbing plants

[OnAndNo]

We have a tall and not so nice looking fence at the back of the garden. I'd love to grow something that climbs fast and with little sun light, as the shed is in front of the fence (fence is much taller than the shed if tat makes sense).

What evergreen shall I plant? Ivy, Wisteria Vine.... or what else?

Evergreen honeysuckle (lonicera Japonica) grows fast and big, mine is in a pot and covers a 20 foot fence. The flowers smell lovely and attract lots of bees too.

Wisteria take a long time to give decent cover and are bald all winter. Clematis Armandii are fast growing and evergreen. Or perhaps a Virginia Creeper?

Ivy’s also very robust, but can get a bit out of hand.

Passion flower or clematis Montana are good coverage. Ivy can look amazing, but you need to be on top of the upkeep.

Russian Vine, known as mile a minute for good reason. You will have to keep an eye on it and give the occasional hair cut.

OP I'm after a fast climber for a shady area - watching with interest...

Be careful what you wish for.... fast climbers can be a lot of work to keep in order!

Thank you. Having read up on it, Russian Vine sounds a bit scary so might avoid that one. I do love Ivy though.
Out of Ivy, Clematis and Jasminum, which grows fastest and is hardiest please?

Ivy probably, but it very much can be rampant too. Having spent ages getting rid of ivy, it's not something I would tend to recommend, but if you want it, why not... it does have flowers and berries when it becomes arborescent, so you will have to allow it to grow quite vigorously to get to that stage. Why not have a mixture? You could plant a couple of variegated ivies (variegated plants tend to be less vigorous than purely green-leaved), a Clematis armandii ('Apple Blossom' is nice) and perhaps a Jasmine at the sunniest spot? Or instead of Jasmine perhaps try Trachelospermum, which is similar but has evergreen leaves. These do prefer a sunny, sheltered spot though.

I would think twice about ivy. I planted some, then had kids and took my eye off it for a few years. When I next noticed it, the plant was massive and although I've tried a couple of times I've not bee able to get rid of it.

Virginia creeper (aka mile a minute plant)
Steer clear of ivy.

I'd also mix in some clematis and honeysuckle as recommended above

I wouldn't recommend ivy either - turn your back on it and it will have the roof off the shed. We had a pretty variegated ivy growing up the ride of the house which bent a gas pipe and got under the gutters while I wasn't looking.
