The genus Hardenbergia was first formally described in 1837 by George Bentham in Stephan Endlicher's Enumeratio plantarum quas in Novae Hollandiae ora austro-occidentali ad fluvium Cygnorum et in sinu Regis Georgii collegit Carolus Liber Baro de Hügel.[6][7] The genus was named in honour of Franziska, Countess von Hardenberg, a patron of botany and sister of Baron von Huegel who visited Australia in 1833.[8][9][10]
The names of three species of Hardenbergia are accepted by the Australian Plant Census:[11]
