I am looking for recommendations for a new clematis- I need something fairly fast growing, and which flowers for at least 3-4 months. Anyone able to help?

I recently planted this and it’s taken off really quickly, maybe too quickly. I haven’t been in that area much with it being winter & I can see I’m going to have to direct it a bit better.
It’s evergreen & winter flowering. I bought it for the winter bees.

Clematis Montana is pretty fast growing. Lovely flowers in late spring/early summer. Doesn't flower for 3-4 months but stays green until late November.

Not a clematis but jasmine is a fast growing climber and holds on to its flowers for quite a while. Added bonus of being evergreen.

Clematis my angel. Flowers for months and is rampant. Flowers are only a couple of cm though.
