Suggesting for a flowering climber

I'm looking to add colour to the garden from September.
What I would like is a couple of flowering climbers growing on a trellis at the back of the border.
I already have in another area of the garden Clematis Montana which grows well and two variegated ivy climbers.
Reasonably quick grower which can be kept in check. I'm not young enough to be waiting years before a result.

Nannytopsy how late does your jinglebells flower please?

I have cyclamen in bloom at the moment and various "Christmas Roses"

Sorry, I remember you asked about climbers, OP.

I don’t know About Jingle Bells yet Notspaghetti This is the first time it’s flowered and it was almost dead in the summer, so that may affect this winter.
