The tribe was first described in 1994 for the sole genus Wisteria, but was greatly expanded in 2019 to include 13 genera, six of which were new. Five had previously been placed in the tribe Millettieae. Members of the tribe are climbers of various kinds. [2] Some, like Wisteria, are cultivated for their flowers.
Wisteria can grow into a mound when unsupported, but is at its best when allowed to clamber up a tree, pergola, wall, or other supporting structure. W. floribunda (Japanese wisteria) with longer racemes is the best choice to grow along a pergola. W. sinensis (Chinese wisteria) with shorter racemes is the best choice for growing along a wall. [7]

The species was first described by Frederick Manson Bailey in 1890 as Millettia pilipes. [4] It was placed in the genus Callerya as Callerya pilipes by Anne M. Schot in 1994. A 2019 molecular phylogenetic study found that it did not belong either in the genus Millettia or in the genus Callerya, and placed it in a newly established genus Austrocallerya within an expanded tribe Wisterieae.
