Some popular meanings behind sunflower and bee tattoos

1) fertility :

Sunflowers require a pollinator (bees) to move pollen from one flower to another. So they are seen as having the power to increase fertility. This is why they are also seen as a symbol of love and romance, as well as protection.

2) relationship and trust (teamwork) :

The sunflower and bee tattoo is a symbol of connection and trust. the sunflower cannot survive without bees around it, and vice versa. So when the bees are around the sunflower, it means that it is a really nice environment for them (vs. a harsh environment where there is little to nothing for them to eat), and that they should protect the sunflower as much as possible ( keeping them safe from harmful insects).
