Thank you both for the very helpful and informative replies.
I'll be preparing the spot for the wood this summer and fall.
I'll try and make it go in deep.
I'm having it taken out after the leaves fall.

Please pardon me if this has been answered elsewhere on this forum.  
I did check but with 10461 [now 62] posts I might have missed it.

I’ve a mulberry tree in a bad location and it needs to be removed.
Is it reasonable that it can be used in a hugelkultur bed as soon as it's down, still green?

Trunk has a 9" diameter and tree is about 20' tall and a bit gangly so most branches would be less than 5" diameter.
I would bury it a couple of feet deep, I’m guessing.

I know fallen and dead trees are fine candidates but I don’t know about recently green ones.

I’m in the high desert of Southern California.  Antelope Valley specifically.
Thanks for you help!
