Quercus crispifolia is a species of oak tree from the montane forests of southern Mexico, Guatemala and El Salvador, where it grows in low montane rain forest at roughly 900 to 2,700 m. It is a forest tree rather than a plant commonly grown in gardens, so care depends on its natural high-altitude, wet habitat.
