Our Background (circa 1980’s)
Rock ‘n’ Soil began as Tingalpa Landscaping Supplies (TLS) in 1981. It was located at 896 Manly Road, Tingalpa Queensland. Tingalpa Landscaping Supplies was —and still is — known for its always on-time delivery with remarkable service. Customers in Brisbane would no doubt recall our previous phone number (07 3390 5355) and our green and white fleet of trucks.
The Formative Years
Eventually, Tingalpa Landscaping Supplies opened up at a new site at 1823 Anzac Avenue in Mango Hill (this site is now known as Nuway Mango Hill which is now operating under different management). Way back when it was known as the Mango Hill Nursery and Landscape. Having multiple locations across Brisbane, Tingalpa Landscaping Supplies became known then as TLS or Total Landscape Supplies – 1 destination for your total needs. TLS was instrumental in the development of the North Lakes and surrounding communities.
It moved its Tingalpa store a few kilometres down the road to its current home at 1398 New Cleveland Road in Chandler. TLS’s phone number also changed to 07 3245 5677 but its service remains the same. The big move was to help the former hardware giant (Masters) establish itself, now the old site consists of “HomeCo Tingalpa”.
Agricultural producers since the early 1970’s
The Sihota family
They have been active as agricultural producers in the Redlands and Brisbane districts since the early 1970’s — growing a wide range of fresh flowers. Indeed, the family’s agricultural roots in Australia stretch as far back as 1880. They’ve kept this going even into the current times; today they also operate The Flower Farm at Birkdale (growing and selling flowers direct to the public).
