Personally, I'd be a little wary of morning glory, because, as Clanad states it does have a habit of popping up everywhere. It is - I think, the cultivated relative of the notorious bindweed.
If you're new to gardening, check out the "climber" section in your local garden centre. Each plant ticket will tell you about preferred site (e.g. sun/shade) and estimated growth rate etc.
I love Honeysuckle for its scent, which is particularly noticeable in the evening. Clematis comes in many varieties and the choice of colour/flower shape is very wide. Don't know how big an area you wish to cover but you might also consider a climbing rose, or, Californian Lilac, with its masses of dark blue flowers can look spectacular against walls.
I agree with the others I wouldn't use morning glory in this instance either. I've only ever grown it in a large pot up a wigwam of canes & it was lovely for the summer. If you are intending to make a permanent display along the garage wall the first thing you will need to do is fix some kind of frame or trellis to it, or just in front, so that you've something to tie your plants to as they grow. Personally I would grow a honeysuckle, a winter jasmine (not officially a climber but can be trained) & a clematis to entwine between the two. Of course a lot may depend on which way the wall faces but a good garden centre/nursery should be able to help. If they don't know much go somewhere else!!
