A cactus plant doesn't move, because it's anchored in the soil by many fibrous, shallow roots underground. But it may spread above ground by its jointed parts breaking off and rooting in the ground around the cactus stem. In fact, one plant can root outward in such a way as to end up forming a dense, treelike, vegetative growth over quite an area of ground.
