good vines for growing w/trees (other than clematis)

hi, I have a large lot by wetlands and a few trees that I'd like to grow flowering vines up. I love Clematis though already have more than 10 in my garden so I want something else. I have a wall of arborvaite that's huge - probably 30' high and 60' wide. I also have some evergreens and ash trees too that I'd like to have flowers on.

What is your experience with growing vines on trees? I'd love to hear your suggestions please. I am considering trumpet vines for their hummingbird appeal and jasmin for the scent, though am concerned they might choke my trees.
