The weather may be cold now, but many people are already envisioning brighter days in a springtime garden. Fencing can be as essential to a good garden as the plants you choose, so what kind is right for your needs? Before you begin fence installation, keep these tips in mind.

The fence you choose depends largely on the kinds of pests you’re trying to keep out. Generally, the best garden fences don’t allow animals to see what is inside, so solid privacy fences, like wooden and vinyl fences, are good choices. If deer are a problem in your area, then you will need to ensure that the fence is high enough to prevent them from jumping over. If you simply want to create a boundary for your garden without obstructing the view, then an ornamental fence can be a good choice.
