Only known propagation is by cuttings, which are extremely difficult to root. Viability rates run from 0-15% of cuttings rooting[http://www.tradewindsfruit.com/passiflora_parritae.htm].

Cuttings are the most common way to propagate, though are extremely difficult to root. Viability rates run from 0-15% of cuttings rooting[http://www.tradewindsfruit.com/passiflora_parritae.htm].
    
It has been difficult to propagate, although cuttings taken during the active growing period root well if not given too much bottom heat[http://www.pacifichorticulture.org/articles/65/1/passiflora-parritae].

Alternatively, a form of layering has shown a good deal of success using semi-ripe sections of the vine buried in a shallow trench and covered with soil and mulch, allowing the side shoots of that section of vine to stick out of the ground.  Do this in an area with good, bright light.  In 2 to 3 months fairly well rooted sections can be carefully dug up and separated and potted.  They should be trimmed if necessary to correspond with the amount of roots.  This method is detailed in [http://www.passionflow.co.uk/POJ/POJ-2011-01-LR.pdf Passiflora Online Journal, June 2011, page 5].
