I don't know how I feel about newspaper for toilet paper, we grow a special bush which has very soft and fuzzy leaves just for the moments when the t.p. runs out.

Sort:  

Is that mullein or some other plant?

We use Tibouchna urvilleana here on our farm. We are in tropical South America.

Awesome! I obviously have never heard of the plant before. I know of only two plants here in the United States with a nice and soft hairy texture often used as toilet paper. Always cool to know new plants. Thanks for sharing.
