Apart from the bending of trees, and the blowing of leases and similar, plant cells do not ordinarily move.

BUT the exception is in Ferns, which produce a motile flagellate sperm. (A mobile, sperm with a propelling tail). The Fern spores grow into a prothallus, and these exchange sperm which swim to their new home.

This is why ferns prefer a moist environment, to aid the sperm in swimming.
