This happens in the case of castor and balsam. [Written by Rini Sebastian]
How are coconut seed dispersed?
The coconuts themselves are seeds of the palm tree. If coconuts are left undisturbed on the ground, some of them will eventually become partially buried; then the new coconut palm tree sprout will emerge, some of these survive to maturity--a new palm tree. Other coconut seeds are dispersed by water normally sea-water, but sometimes they can find their way into freshwater rivers and streams

This accounts for the ocean-edge trees, but it almost certain that all inland trees are the result of deliberate planting by man. It is such a useful plant, that increasing the bounty would be a driver for all but the most unthinking.
