Fly.

Float on debris.

Have your seeds/spores carried on the wind.

Stow away on a man-made vehicle.

Be on the island at some point in history when it is connected to a larger landmass.

Iirc, seeds are often carried there by birds that fly overhead and poop on the island, bird poop can contain small seeds.
