A similar species, Drosera filiformis is rare in the Florida panhandle and disjunct from northeastern US populations.  In Florida, it is restricted to the Sand Hill Lakes region of the Panhandle and occurs along the fringes of those sandhill lakes.  At one time, Drosesra tracyi was called Drosera filiformis var. tracyi.  They are now considered to be different species. Bog gardens and rain gardens.

This plant is listed as Endangered in Florida where the southern limit of its range barely makes it into the state. Moist site garden though will tolerate drier. Perhaps best used as a background shrub or a hedge. Mildly showy flowers. Interesting fruits.
