Not disputing your word but there might be a passiflora that grows wild in
Alabama. There is one that grows wild here in Missouri, zone 6. It is
beautiful. Reminds me of a sea anemone. In fact, I just planted one on my
lattice shade house 2 weeks ago. The fruit is indeed edible. Many people
here say it is invasive and comes up everywhere. I hope so.

There is a wild passiflora here in Tennessee as well, probably the same one as
grows all over the south, known as the maypop. It isn't edible, but the
flower is the gaudiest thing I've ever seen. It's probably my favorite
wildflower for that reason.
