Passiflora Lutea- Anyone have experience with this species

I've been scanning what Wikipedia has for a list of native plants plants my state to help me catalogue plants for my specific area & find anything interesting I might not have known about before & I found this- Passiflora Lutea, or Yellow Passion Vine. A whole other native passion fruit species which occurs further north than even Maypop. The fruit is small, dark blue berries. Apparently, the were never commonly utilized as food, due to the plant not being common enough under natural circumstances, but the fruit is believed to be edible. Seeds don't seem too difficult to find, though they're a bit on the expensive side.

I wanted to hear what others thought about it.

I don't have any experience growing this though it sounds like this plant would be worthwhile as it is a food source for several larvae of butterflies and the Passionflower Bee.

From almostedenplants

The dark purple, blue, to black marble-sized fruits have a poor and bitter taste (experience speaking here) and could be used to make a purple/indigo dye (experience again, don't put overripe fruits in an unprotected shirt pocket if you are worried about staining)

It doesn't sound like it would be very useful as a food plants for humans, although as Anne points out other creatures may find it a good resource.
An interesting find though. I wonder whether it could be crossed with a better fruiting passionflower to give a hardier fruiting vine?

I just purchased 2 of the vines to grow on my cow panel/arbor.  I love the leaves.  Received them today, they are tiny I'm curious to see how they grow.

Yeah, hopefully. I lucked into getting some live plants, but I have to wait for them to sprout before they can be shipped. Good luck to anyone attempting to grow them. They should be fine as far north as the south shore of Lake Erie, I think, but they grow all over the entire Eastern US. It's just that there's better options for people in the south.
