That is also a passionflower vine. based on the leaves , the vine below is passiflora edulis( purple passionfruit), and the one above( what you are asking for) is passiflora caerulea( bluecrown passionflower)
Often , the pruple passionfruit stem is grafted onto the rootstock of the bluecrown passionflower as the bluecrown passionflower is one of the most hardy and very frost resistant varieties while the purple passionfruit is a strictly tropical plant.
The bluecrown passion flower is often grown by itself for its attractive flowers, but does not produce very tasty fruits ( they are edible though) compared to the main purple passionfruit ( the most commercially grown species)
If you want to grow only for the fruit, them my advice it to strictly remove the bluegrown vine from the base
portemanteau
Yet another *Passiflora*. I think *P. caerulea* considering the shape of the stipules
Arceuthobium
Apparently another species of Passiflora

Root stock for your passionfruit vine. Rip it out and then spend the rest of your life constantly ripping them out until you decide its better to get a non grafted variety.
Source: I have 1/2 an acre of passionfruit rootstock gone wild because of the previous owner lol
