in _The Fellowship of the Ring_, when the four hobbits get into trouble in the Old Forest, the trees which trap them demonstrate considerably more mobility than the trees of our world, and Tom Bombadill needs to rescue them. So even when Ents are not around, Tolkien's trees do things which blur the distinction you're trying to make.
