Pollinators allow for sex between plants.

A host (usually an insect) called a pollinator will go from flower to flower collecting or eating nectar. This is the plants pay to its pollinator because upon leaving the flower the pollinator will have sperm (aka pollen) attached to its body and it will transport it to another flower where the pollen will germinate.

Not all plants have flowers, many plants rely of wind dispersal of pollen (think grasses) while others require water (think ferns).
