    Could anyone advise me on how many 60 litre bags of decorative chipped bark I would need to cover 5 sq. metres of ground at 2 inches deep. Thanks in advance.

    2" is min cover, so you'll probably get out with 2 bags.

    Ideally mulch should be 100mm/4", much more effective to retain soil moisture and suppress weeds.
