一種珍貴的材用樹種，生長於北美洲的低窪地，特別是大西洋及墨西哥灣沿岸平原，以及密西西比河河谷地區。其高度可達24至36公尺，枝條以極窄的角度從柱狀主幹朝上生長，形成濃密的圓形樹冠。其銀白樹皮略泛紅光，亮綠色的葉片富有光澤，葉片下表面帶白色且覆有絨毛，葉長通常達20公分，於秋天時轉紅。生長於沼澤地的栗櫟常稱為「乳牛櫟」（籃筐），因牛隻以其櫟實為食；或因當地人用其木枝編製籃筐，所以稱為「籃筐櫟」（basket oak）。早先被認為是冬青葉櫟（即「岩栗櫟」（rock chestnut oak）或簡稱「栗櫟」（chestnut oak））的一種。宓氏櫟的樹形通常較冬青葉櫟為大，觀其生長地區可快速分辨兩樹種，生長於山脊者多半是冬青樹櫟，而生長於低窪溼地者則很可能是宓氏櫟。

Species of valuable North American bottomland timber tree of the Atlantic and Gulf coastal plains and Mississippi Valley region, growing 24-36 meters in height, with branches rising at narrow angles from a columnar trunk to a round, compact head. It has silver-white, red-tinged bark and bright green, glossy leaves, velvety and whitish beneath, usually 20 cm in length and turning red in autumn. Swamp chestnut oak is often called "cow oak," because the acorns are eaten by cattle, or "basket oak" from local use of the wood strips for basket material. It was formerly considered a variety of Q. prinus ("rock chestnut oak" or simply "chestnut oak"). Q. michauxii is typically more massive than Q. prinus. A quick way to distinguish the two species is by habitat; if the tree grows on a ridge, it is probably Q. prinus; if it grows in wet bottomlands, it is probably Q. michauxii.
