If you are up for a challenge, try climbing hydrangea vine. I saw one once and it was spectacular. They can be slow to establish and bloom, but once you have it going just be sure to keep the soil moist. Dutchman's pipe grows in shade, but it needs to be away from other plants. It suckers underground and can strangle nearby plants. Here is more:
