message: Does the tree grow with its own warning sign or red X attached?
But seriously, how about putting in something about the process of identifying the tree and putting a sign or X on it, and where that practice is utilized. I've never seen it and I used to live in southern Florida. Davidl9999 (talk) 18:00, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

message: Can we have some verification of that spelling? I've seen it referred to on the internet in several places (i.e., seriously just use google) as manzanilla / manzanillo but as a hispanic Floridian I've always heard it referred to as manzanita, which is actually how one would say 'little apple' in the Spanish I was raised speaking. 
(I don't know if maybe, what with Columbus working for the Spaniards at the time, he was speaking Castilian Spanish and maybe their diminutives are different but -- )
Yeah, as far as I know, 'manzanilla' is chamomile, not Manchineel.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.210.81.212 (talk) 13:30, 3 January 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm native Spanish speaker, and yes I can attest that 'manzanilla' is chamomile (Chamaemelum nobile) however it can also mean 'little apple' (specially when said with disdain) and I think this latter translation is more accurate in this case as it most likely refers to the tree's fruit which looks like a little apple.

message: I'm a bit skeptical about the Spanish name given in the lead section ("mangalla Es herpinteen de fiella"). I could not find a valid translation for some of the words or the phrase as a whole (for example, running the phrase through Google Translate returned "mangalla is herpinteen of fiella"). I'm not really an expert in Spanish, so could someone see if this should be changed to be more accurate? (For the record, searching the edit history showed that at one point this was "manzanilla de la muerte", which appears to be more correct.)Radioactivated (talk) 00:23, 25 May 2015 (UTC)

message: Re: Amazon video series, "Homecoming" -- At the end of S01,E10 Julia Robert's character is hired into the 'Homecoming' treatment program in the office of a company named 'Manchineel.' I have not seen any other reference to the tree in the program. In an earlier episode some Bromeliads are seen being collected, then being distilled into a reddish liquid used in the treatments.

message: I have restored a literary reference to the film Wind Across the Everglades, previously removed as "trivia" (along with much other material) on 2 December 2017. As this material was previously uncited, I have found and added a citation to page 173 of the following scholarly book chapter on film criticism, published by a university press:
:
More generally: characterizing material as "trivia" tells us very little about its encyclopedicity or lack thereof, and is never a good reason for removing it from Wikipedia. If you are reading this and have "trimmed" (a common deletionist euphemism) material from this article as "trivia", please undo the damage you did, by instead finding citations for as much of the material as possible, and adding it back with the newly located citations.
