What type of fence should I use?

Newly constructed home so I have a totally blank slate to work with..I will only have a side yard - being 15 wide by 70 deep.

Since I am in a planned community we are only permitted to have white fencing and maximum height is 6 ft.

I am trying to create privacy as well as using this space for a pond and many flower beds. I don't need much of a seating area since I have a porch that is recessed in the middle of the house.

I want to use a country style trellis garden gate but I don't know what is best for flowers,plants, privacy on the actually fenced part.

What works best for the health of the flowers/plants? Shoudl I go with more of a high picket fence, solid fencing or one with some maybe an inch or so spacing?

Thanks
