Choosing the Right Height for a Garden Fence

A garden fence that's too short won't keep out deer, but one that's too tall can create an unwelcoming fortress. I've found that a 4-foot fence works well for ornamental gardens to define the space without blocking views, while 6 to 8 feet is better for vegetable patches where you're serious about keeping critters out. The right height really depends on what you're growing and whether you want to see over it.
