Drosera filiformis is a winter hardy plant. It can easily be grown in sphagnum moss on a garden bog or a big trough outside. In those conditions it will self seed profusely.

Drosera filiformis and Drosera tracyi are two closely related North American species. So closely infact, that sometimes they are considered just subspecies. Drosera filiformis is found on the Atlantic coast from North Carolina to Nova Scotia along with a few populations in the Florida panhandle. The Florida plants are generally smaller and redder than the Atlantic coast plants and were given the name Drosera filiformis var. floridana. Drosera tracyi is found along the gulf coast from Louisiana to the Florida panhandle and southern Georgia. Both species form hibernacula in the winter although Drosera tracyi and Drosera filiformis var floridana are found in an area generally considered warm temperate and may not survive a real winter.
