Ya unfortunately I have 8 foot hollyhocks bordering the whole exposed half of the garden so netting the top of the garden wouldnt really be an option.Taller, floppier fence may do it - won't look pretty, but you could try extending your existing fence with like 2' of chicken wire, snow fencing, anything that's too flimsy for them to land on. Many times when chickens fly a fence, they'll land on top before launching over, so this will discourage them landing on top.
Netting over the top will stop them for sure, but may be difficult to do if you have taller plants.
Do you think large plastic birds spikes could train them not to hop up?
