My experience with wisteria was at a rental property years ago. If you don't contain the root system - and that will be difficult - you'll have an area where nothing will grow. I was always out trying to chop through them with an axe for all the good it did me. In the Austin area where I lived at the time, the plant itself suffered from chlorosys in the alkaline soil. I expect it needs something slightly acidic for the foli to look it's best. When it blooms, it's great, but the rest of the time it was a nightmare.
Yes, the Carolina Jessamine is yellow. Not too much fragrance that I could detect. Nothing like honeysuckle. It's actually a late winter blooming vine, so it has the advantage of being one of the first plants to bloom. The buds are extremely frost resistant, but open blooms tend to suffer with a frost. My vines had been in place for four years.
I've only seen Crossvine blooming once to know what it was. In Granbury. It was extraordinarily showy in bloom. Later, I made a point to check out the foliage and liked that too. But beyond that sighting, I don't know a lot about it except that it grows in the northern part of the state.
