Mine has gotten to about 3.5m high & 8m wide, after 3 summers in USDA zone 10, Sunset zone 20.

This is a very late addition to your comment, but I was wondering whether Clytemnestra repeats well in Z10? I see references to some of the hybrid musks being effectively once-blooming in hot summer/low winter chill climates. I'm looking for a small, well-scented climber that can take a little shade in z9a, Sunset z12.

You might try Renae.

You're welcome.
I grew it quite successfully here in 9b for years... smooth, makes it a joy to train and easy to use in close spaces.
Burlington offers it.

Thanks again so much. I've decided the space is small enough to be safer with a miniature climber (I don't want to overwhelm nearby plants). But Renae is definitely going on my wish list as I have plenty of other spots for full-size climbers here. Thanks for bringing her to my attention as I was completely unfamiliar with her!

Be careful. Miniature flowers don’t necessarily mean miniature plant size. Ask me how I know ;-) I grow Renae as well, and I would consider it one of my more restrained climbers.

'Annie Laurie McDowell' is a more restrained option.
She's very beautiful but flowers so heavily she may take a while to become established. She's well worth the effort.

Can be grown as a climber, at least in Southern California - to about three meters..

Pretty, small flowers that have curling petals causing a "quilled" look. The scent is sweet and musky; it wafts very nicely. Bush is delicate looking (at this point; it's only a couple of years old) and sprawling in nature.
