You need carpenter bees to cross pollinate your passion fruit...Carpenter bees are very attracted to sunflowers....so why not plant some sunflowers by your passion vines? Of course you can apply the same concept to any other crop that needs bee pollination. The thing about sunflowers is that they are huge and can "bee" spotted from a greater distance than more traditional flowers.
Fun fact: The sunflower is actually a large inflorescence. That means that the flower head is actually made of many tiny flowers called florets. Central florets look like the center of a normal flower while the outer florets look like yellow petals and together they make up a "false flower".
