Mandrake and Valerian Root plants are now able to be planted indoors when it is Too Cold if Simmers have Realm of Magic installed.

Fixed in Patch 1.59.73

Do you have a thermostat set to heat up your house? If not do that then try, I remember having the same issue with other plants.

This is very similar to a bug I ran into today while I was playing, it sounds related to this older thread where I just posted a comment. https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/NEEDS-INPUT-S-Can-t-plant-most-plants-too-cold/m-p/6880270/hig...

Sorry it took me so long to test it out, I had work last night. I tried it for every planter, still doesn't let her plant it. I also tried it with a thermostat in the house set to warmer, but there was no change.

Yes indeed, they were in a couple different rooms when I tested the different plant pots.

I think there is so much to say about plants. And I think a lot depends on each other in the planting system. It is not so good to part with many contributions. So no one can see that copies of misprogrammed equipment have been taken or that they have programmed all equipment in different ways.

I had this happen too but noticed that it only gave me the too cold to plant message when it was extremely cold out. (Thermometer was at the very bottom and was glowy blue with the snowflake icon) When the outside temp warmed up above freezing they were plantable indoors like normal. So it is clearly flagging them as still outdoors when they are inside. Once I was able to plant them it did show them as Sheltered however.
