Eli5 why we use trees to produce paper.

Everybody uses paper. Why are we waiting for trees to grow only to cut them down to produce paper? It takes an incredible amount of time for a tree to grow, whereas other plants grow faster, why not use those plants

There is a very close relationship between the paper and the lumber industries. Lots of pulp is produced in the production of lumber (which is essential for the manufacture of our homes and other uses) so why not use it to produce paper? What else could you do with it?
