They are slightly different.
Planting a tree is the action of putting the seed or sapling into the ground.
To grow a tree is to make the tree bigger, this could include watering and caring for the tree as it grows.

I agree with the person above, to expand slightly: to grow implies that you routinely care for the plant. "to plant" usually only includes the act of planting the seed without returning to the plant later.
