Plant tissue culture is controlled dramatically by two plant hormones: auxin and cytokinin. Auxin makes the cells grow bigger and cytokinin makes them divide. Vascular tissue and pollen can take up cytokinins (see reference) ...so I guess they might also have some stores of cytokinin that leak out and initiate cell division in tissue cultures (assuming your observations are correct).
