FWIW last summer I was considering putting some small mulberry trees into the pond. On DD1's advice, I took a few sticks and put them in a bucket with a couple 1 inch BG. The BG died in less than an hour. Repeated the test with fewer sticks and got the same result so, mulberry trees are also something you might not want to toss in, at least green ones. I've not tried fully cured ones.

IMHO the safest route is to only put cured trees in the pond if possible and, even if cured, I would still perform DD1's bucket test.
