Celastrina argiolus is a common resident in the Netherlands. The species is distributed in a great part of Europe, except Scotland and Northern Scandinavia. It occurs in a variety of habitats, even in City centres. The larval food plants differ between the spring and summer generation. In Spring, the females often lay their eggs on Rhamnus frangula and Ilex aquifolium. In summer, they tend to use later flowering species like Hedera helix, Calluna vulgaris or Lythrum salicaria. Holly Blue flies in two generations from mid-April until end-August and hibernates as pupa. During the 20th century numbers probably remained stable.

Saururus chinensis, commonly called Asian lizard’s tail, has attractive, green foliage with white splotches on the leaves at the top of the plant. It is native to wetlands, including water gardens, meadows, marshes, ditches, swampy forested areas, fields and roadsides in East Asia. Minute, spicily fragrant, white to yellowish-white flowers bloom in early to mid-summer (June-August). Each flower spike resembles the tail of a lizard, hence the common name.
