The nearness of a cave is not relevant. The geology, altitude and topography of an area affect its vegetation, not the existence or otherwise of caves.
Shade-loving green plants such as ferns and algae will grow in cave entrances, to a point, but not underground of course. Limestone pavement will also host a range of plants suited to the conditions within its grykes.

Why do green plants not grow inside caves?
Green plants require sunlight for photosynthesis, and sunlight rarely reaches into caves with sufficient intensity to support their growth.
Which plants do not need sunlight?
Some fungi will grow without light. A mushroom is a good example, they grow in caves.
Does grass grow in caves?
yes
What plants are grown in caves?
I am not sure if you mean "are cultivated" or "grow naturally". Chlorophyllic plants will not survive underground, but caves and tunnels have been used as mushroom farms and (rather stretching the point) maturing cheeses - the blue varieties are so by veins of microscopic fungi. Fungi will grow naturally underground but only if suitable nutrients are available, such as from the body of a dead insect or washed-in vegetable matter.
Do potatoes grow on plants?
Potatoes are plants. They do not grow on other plants.
Why are there so few producers in caves?
Caves typically have limited space, resources, and access to sunlight, all of which are essential for producers like plants to thrive. The harsh conditions such as low light levels and scarce nutrients make it difficult for plants to grow in caves, leading to fewer producers in such environments.
What type of plants live in a cave?
There are no plants in caves,except for the grasses and such at the mouth of a cave, as there is no sunlight.
Can plants grow in caves?
Yes, some plants can grow in caves as long as there is sufficient light, water, and nutrients available. The types of plants that can thrive in caves are often specialized to the low light and high humidity conditions found in these environments. Examples include ferns, mosses, and certain fungi species.
Why did the Spain people move from the caves?
The majority of Spanish people have not lived in caves since the Neolithic Period. Presumably, they left the caves so that they could grow crops in the sunlight.
What do epiphytic and parastic plants grow on?
Epiphytic plants grow on other plants for support and parasitic plants grow on host plants for support and food both.
