Answers:
morning glorys are sweet and once established will maybe never go away. Ivy is proper and many types will do the job. It would be wise to start several kinds at once and see which takes over faster and plant more of that kind or you can let it slowly grow in on its own.
Trumpet vine
Zone 4 to 9. Michael A. Dirr writes of the growth rate of trumpet vines: "Fast; keep your legs moving when in the vicinity of this vine." This is a very fast grower and it will cover a large area (30-40'). Plant in full sun. Very full, lush vine.
English Ivy
Zone 4 to 9. Another fast growing vine that takes full sun to shade. Can grow to 90'. Large leaves, but not as full and lush as trumpet vine.
Five leaf Akebia
Zone 5 to 8; Fast growth to 20-40'. Deciduous in northern climates, can be evergreen in warmer climates. Good sized compound leaf, not as dense as trumpet vine.
Porcelain Ampelopsis
Zones 4 to 8. Fast growth; can grow to 15 - 20' in one season. though this is rather rare. Smaller leaf, but good leaf density.
Crossvine
Zones 6 to 9; Fast growth rate. Will grow on the ground as well.
Dropmore Scarlet Honeysuckle
Zones 5 to 7; Will grow 5-7' per year. Dense leaf cover. Medium sized leaf for a vine.
Trumpet Honeysuckle
Zones 4 to 9; Fast grower, smaller vine grows to only 10-20'. Dense leaf cover. Medium sized leaf for a vine.
