Once they get taller the fence won't be an issue.
Would it be a bad idea to keep them in their pots over the summer where I can keep them in full sunlight and then plant in the fall? Might be able to get a bit more size out of them before they get tucked behind the fence. I could also move them to slightly bigger pots for the summer too if the thought that the pots we bought them in were too small (this is what I was thinking).

Anything I bought in pots and waited more then a couple days to plant and was left in the sun needed daily (or twice a day) watering or else they'd dry out. If you stay on top of watering I dont see the issue. But dont miss a day when its +20c and sunny or else you'll fry them.
