Sarracenia rosea "Sarracenia rosea" f. "luteola". The species is native to the Gulf Coast of the Southeastern United States, and has been found from Mississippi to Georgia. However, the areas in which the plant occurs are being developed, so the species's habitat is threatened. However along with "Sarracenia psittacina", this species readily colonizes drainage ditches along highways throughout the gulf states providing a somewhat more sustainable albeit less natural habitat. "S. rosea" is appreciably more shade-tolerant than the other members of the genus. "Sarracenia rosea" was first identified by the American botanist Edgar T. Wherry as a "mutant" form of "S. purpurea"
