"Even a plant can be grown in a desert, if there is hope"

I am not able to frame the sentence properly. Please help.

It doesn't seem to be correctly expressed, seeming to suggest that things other than plants are easier to grow in the desert. I think it probably should say "A plant can be grown (even) in a desert, if there is hope". In other words, with hope, we can achieve a difficult thing like growing a plant in a desert.
