The native range of this genus is southern tropical Africa and southern Africa. It is found in Malawi, Mozambique, Zambia, Zimbabwe and also the Cape Provinces and KwaZulu-Natal in South Africa.[1]

The genus name of Podranea is derived from anagram of Pandorea. As the genus was separated out from the other Bignoniaceae genus.[2]

The genus was circumscribed by Thomas Archibald Sprague in Fl. Cap. (Harvey) vol.4 (2.3) on page 449 in 1904.[1]
