How about a clematis?
Choose one that flowers on new wood. That way, if it gets ratty, you can
prune it without affecting the flowering too much.
I like Ville de Leon and Etoille Violette. But there are far more varieties
that will grow in your zone. Just remember to mulch the base of the plant
heavily.
