Sounds great Elaine! Thumbs up
I haven't done it lately, but I had good success propagating Passifloras using serpentine or (air layering) as mentioned here. Hanging a small pot with soil right next to it and pinning a piece down into it - counting ca 5 nodes from the growing tip, removing leaves from the node and scraping the Cambium ever so slightly. It worked the easiest for me.

edited to add - after ca 3 - 4 weeks the then rooted piece can be cut off from the mother plant, it should have enough roots by then. And you don't have to pot it up, since it is already growing in its own pot.
