I've had the same experience with many passiflora's. It's not only heat that can induce this condition from what I've seen. Heat is usually the biggie but cold, lack of water, too much water and even transplant shock.
These guys sure can be beauties and are usually so easy to grow. This season has been ...lets call it a major learning curve rather than something more nasty;). I'm all about next year now and making preperations so it can hopefully be the best ever if Ma Nature allows.
