From the shape of the bud and leaf, it know it may be a passion flower and my first guess is Passiflora coccinea. but knowing you are tricky with a camera it could be the size of your fingernail or as large as your hand, who knows~!
I think you are right. I’ve never seen this variety of passionflower before but it has many of the components of a passionflower. Wish I hadn’t destroyed my own vines but they attracted worms that ruined their esthetic.. Hole-covered flowers and leaves lose their charm. Love love the flowers, though.
I had a friend who had a huge vine of these… many many years ago. Only one I ever saw before this one and this one is sorta wilted. It looked familiar but very unlike my purple passionflowers from equally long ago.
No idea. Haven’t seen this one before

That is strange, I replied to this immediately, but do not see that it was posted.
