The unusual flower of Babiana ringens, one of the most distinctive species in the genus, is adapted for sunbird pollination. Its specialisations include the red colour, stiff stamens and style, and elongate perianth tube with a wide throat. Apart from the flower itself, the most striking adaptation of Babiana ringens is the sterile main stem, which acts as a perch for visiting sunbirds. Closely related, but smaller-flowered B. avicularis, shares this feature but differs from B. ringens in the falcate leaves elliptic in section and in the smaller flowers with a perianth tube 16-21 mm long, with the narrow basal part 4 mm long and kinked at the apex and dorsal tepal 15-18 mm long vs. tube 22-45 mm long and dorsal tepal 18-50 mm long but mostly 20-45 mm in B. ringens. The two species are allied to B. hirsuta, which has similar red flowers with a channelled dorsal tepal enclosing the filaments and style, but a multi-branched stem, the main axis of which bears a typical spike of several flowers.
