'''Wise Wisterwood''' is a giant tree who oversees everything in the center of Flower Fields in ''[[Paper Mario]]''. He is the elder of the fair land who watches over the area.

After [[Mario]] gets the fifth [[Star Spirit]], [[Misstar]]; the volcano Mario and Kolarado is in starts to erupt as Misstar gets both of them out to safety. Kolarado is sad that the treasure chest in the volcano is said to be gone forever, but Mario finds the treasure and gives it to Kolorado in return for the last Magical Seed. Before Mario goes back to [[Toad Town]] as usual, a Bub-ulb is crying because their home, [[Flower Fields]], is being terrorized by [[Huff N. Puff]]. When Mario gives all four Magical Seeds to [[Minh T.]] to plant, a door to Flower Fields appears.

When Mario enters Flower Fields, he hears a voice in the area. The voice is actually a tree. The tree introduces himself to Mario as "Wise Wisterwood", as he is the eldest tree around Flower Fields. Wise Wister actually knows much about Mario as he mentions that his quest to save all the seven Star Spirits all around the world. He is surprised that Mario is attempting to get the sixth Star Spirit, [[Klevar]] in this place. He mentions there is a creature named Huff N. Puff who invaded the land with his troops not while ago. He then mentioned his recollection of a rumor he had heard that Huff N. Puff is currently holding someone captive; as he quickly understands that Mario was getting the sixth Star Spirit in the place. When Mario is attempting to defeat Huff N. Puff, he mentions that it is not easy as Huff N. Puff is located in the very sky as the plants call the place; [[Cloudy Climb]] as there is no way to reach there.

Since Mario cannot reach Cloudy Climb, Wise Wisterwood mentions that there is a [[Magical Bean]] that can grow a tall beanstalk that would lead to Cloudy Climb. Mario collects the items, makes the sun shine again and then accesses Cloudy Climb, where he defeats Huff N. Puff and gains the Star Spirit, Klevar.

Later in the game, Wise Wisterwood writes Mario a [[List of letters in Paper Mario#Wise Wisterwood|letter]]. He also appears during the credits parade at the end of the game, where [[Merlon]], [[Merluvlee]], [[Merlee]], [[Merlow]], [[Merle]] and [[Merlumina|Madam Merlar]] use their [[Shaman]] magic to decorate and light up the tree.
