Most desert plants evolved according to their environment, an environment in which conservation of moisture is paramount. The broad surface of a leaf would transpire too much moisture away from the plant in the hot, dry desert, so "leaves" are an almost unseen feature of most desert plants.
Europe does not have any deserts. It is too far north of the equator to have the level of heat to create deserts. There are hot and dry places, but no deserts.
Plants need all the features to grow. In deserts, all the ungrown plants get sunlight etc. and all they need then is water. When it rains, the plants get water and they grow in just a night.
The desert receives little rainfall and plants have to compete for what little falls. They grow a distance for their neighbors to avoid competition and have a better chance of surviving.
Leaves that have a small surface area lose less water.
I think they have glossy leaves to reduce water loss.
Plants that grow in LEAVES are KATAKA-TAKA plants
plants grow in rain forests or in deserts.
Most deserts have fertile soil but need irrigation to grow plants.

Leaves
Because the desert is too arid for them to survive.
They both are hot and grow plants.

some facts about cold deserts are they are cold and mostly no plants can grow their unlike hot deserts with cactuses
Plants found in tropical deserts include cacti, succulents, shrubs, and grasses that are adapted to survive in hot and arid conditions. Examples include barrel cacti, agave plants, acacia trees, and thorn bushes. These plants have features such as water-storing tissues, reduced leaves, and deep root systems to help them thrive in the extreme desert environment.
