100+degrees direct sun on rooftop balcony

Hi!

I have a balcony on a tin roof... for real... (there are wood boards over the tin however) so it gets really hot durring direct sun for about 4-5 hours durring the summer months. My digital thermometers sensor is situated in the shade just below the gutter so it never gets direct sun light. It now reads 102.2 degrees. YIKES!

I want to have plants,vine or anything that would give us some privacy when we are on the porch. Our section is small... about 4x8 ft... tight squeeze so I cant have a humungous plant... I was thinking vines... maybe sweet potatoe vines along the wrought iron rails?

Any suggestions?

Thanks
