As discussed in the beginning that this black rose is only growing and growing in the Halferi area. Unfortunately, this time black roses are endangered species. This is because it is almost impossible to develop black roses in other areas. This is further exacerbated by the construction of Birecik dam in Halfeti so that this place is much evicted and began to be abandoned by its citizens.
Although residents try to plant black roses in other areas but the results are not as good as when planted in the area of ​​origin. In the new place not many roses can bloom. Therefore the local government is also trying to save black roses to be enjoyed by the next generation.
