But as you know cactus are desert plants. so you have to provide similar conditions at your home for growing those plants.

That means cactus wants very little water, dry potting media, dry humid conditions. So In your home, you have to artificially provide all these requirements.

You have to water only once in three to four weeks. Planting in a well-draining potting mix. And to keep in well-aerated and under good light condition. This is called providing an artificial environment for your plants.
In the same way, if you are living in Rajasthan and you like to keep orchid plants in your home. Then you have to provide the required environment that orchids want to grow.

Orchids need high humidity of 60-80%, letting the potting medium dry between watering; it doesn't like to sit in the waterlogged situation, full sunshine, and a good amount of orchid's food.

That means you have to mist your plants frequently to maintain the humidity level in your home. And using perforated pots or slit pots with some barks, charcoal, and wood chips. Exposing the plants to a good amount of partial light can enhance their growth.

Conclusion:
if you want to check whether a plant can survive in your region the best thing to do is bring a plant according to your climate and see whether that plant can survive or not. Do not bring more numbers of the same kinds of plants. Always check with the individual plant if it grows well then go for buying more plants.
