You might want to just tie some strings between the rails to help the Passionvine 'grasp'. It doesn't twine or stick itself to supports like some vines do, it has strong tendrils that wrap around anything small enough. Most often it will end up grasping its own stems, and you can encourage that happening as it grows.

I'll see if I have a picture showing the tendrils so you can see what I mean. (right above the flower is a grasping tendril, not wrapped around anything but you get the idea)

Which variety did you get? First photo is 'Purple Possum' and second one is P. Coccinea.
