Well, if you enclose the plants in a "room", (whether it has walls or not) the plants become "sheltered" and the ground is no longer the same as the outdoors. You can choose the "outdoor" flooring but its not the same. Since it's a "room", the sprinklers leave puddles if you haven't upgraded it to not leave puddles. If you haven't upgraded the sprinkler, the puddles are the same as indoor puddles and will need to be mopped up.
Tip: What I usually do is create a room outside, with walls, place columns on the corners, then delete the walls. The room will stay in place then. Put on a roof with the glass ceiling. It's outdoors without actually being outdoors. You can even put the beehive outside the "room" and the bees will still get to the plants.
Do the plants still read as sheltered if you do that?
If you go into build mode and click on it and it shows up as a "room", they will be considered "sheltered". It doesn't matter if they have walls or not. You will at least need to have columns on the corners before you delete the walls. If you don't, then the room will be deleted also.
Just make a square room of walls, put columns on the corners, delete the walls and leave the columns. Put a roof on it and it'll work.
You'll need to use planters though since that's not outside ground.
