Molly, your purple flower is belotti, aka alato-caerulea. It is a very nice, old hybrid sometimes called the Orchid Passionflower. There are a few others similar to this one but they seem to be uncommon here in the US.
Last year mine was a non stop bloomer. This year not so good at all. I wonder if it was because it stayed in the ground for winter.

**Did y'all know that Ransom Gardens is having a 50% off sale on passies?

Attached is Lavender Lady BEFORE the fritillary cats ate it to a skeleton.
