"While plants can’t walk, they can certainly travel. Some species have
travelled vast distances over millennia, moving by different and varied modes.
Some found new habitats when the continent they were riding on slowly crashed
into another. Others went on perilous ocean going journeys – think of coconuts
washing up on new island shores. Others still have been carried as seeds by
birds or other animals – including us.
Many have now become local, endemic to their region of Australia. Some may
surprise you."
