Hi , i just discovered The plant Costus pictus or caña caña that can be used for producing rolling papers. It's posible to take off  thin layers from The cane that can be used as rolling papers.
I was wondering if there are another plants that have this functionality. The paper or layers that produces costus pictus cane are not that thin enough ... It works as rolling paper but it is not very comfortable.

Do anybody know another options?

Cheers

R.

I found this little plant that looks as a small banana tree but it's leaves are thinner and work fine as rolling paper.

Corn leaves can be dried and used as rolling paper. I have seen it done in Central America by rural folks..
 
I suggest huckleberry pie. But the only thing on the gluten free menu is this tiny ad:
