Ivy is very invasive, and can seize quickly raging. You may want to consider a jasmine (Carolina, Confederate) if the conditions are right for it. Honeysuckle would be another option. All of these hold fragrant flowers.
You can try Clematis which is a vine with flowers. There are hundreds of different kind. Clematis can also be hard to grow so you will involve to do your research. Clematis is also kind of 'thin' so you will requirement alot to cover an area. Do not do Trumpet vine. It is invasive.
Inglish Ivy does not flower and also can be invasive. Ivy is also a shade plant so it will not do okay in the sun. Most Ivys are shade plants.
wisteria has purple flowers that look similar to grapes from a distance.
honey suckle have an orange flower and is a lily "type" flower.
nearby is also the clematis, that comes in several shapes and colors, from white to thoughtful purple.
with the first two vines you hold to stay on them to make sure that they don't overrun their nouns. the clematis will usually only grow to roughly 12' long.
I've planted some Virginia creeper or Parthenocissus at the top of my concrete retaining wall. I've been told it's much smaller number invasive than ivy and it turns a beautiful reflective red in the trickle. I've got the vine growing down and my clematis growing up. Hopefully when they hold matured it will mix together and make for a fine garden wall.

edit: That's not my patio, that's just a photo of the vine I be suggesting.
Answers: It ultimately depends on where on earth you live (Your planting zone) but most USDA zones can knob these perennial vines: Clematis, Honeysuckle , Wisteria, & Trumpet-Vine to name a few. The most aggressive of these is the honeysuckle. Be aware that vines enjoy a tendency to over-time wreak damage to fence & walls.
Annual vines: usually less aggressive & inevitability to be replanted every year; sweetpeas, nastursiums & moonflowers. There are many lovely varieties of adjectives of these vines. The sweetpea & nastursiums flowers are edible.
I hope this information help & feel free to email me if you want further detail on these vines. Happy Gardening!
Warm Blessings,

If you want something that grows fast, try morning glory, cardinal climber, sweet pea. They are annuals and will die posterior in the winter and you will own to replant, but they will bloom this summer. Plant all three together and sticky for a privacy fence.
