Mayflower is a fictional superhero in the DC Universe. She first appeared in Batman and the Outsiders Annual #1 (1984).
Mayflower is a member of the Force of July, a patriotic themed superhero team run by the United States government. She has the power to control and grow plant life at a rapid rate, animating vines to capture or ensnare her opponents. Mayflower wears a costume similar to that of a Pilgrim of colonial America, along with a long, brown cloak but without a hat or bonnet. Mayflower also speaks with an English accent.
Mayflower is the daughter of Rose Canton, the Golden Age villainess the Thorn. This makes her the half-sister of Jade (Jennie-Lynn Hayden) and Obsidian (Todd Rice). It is unclear if she knew Jade and Obsidian were her half-siblings. It is unrevealed who her biological father was.
Mayflower dies during the early events of the Janus Directive, a victim of Amanda Waller's need to portray that she had been replaced by a subservient doppelganger. In a violent confrontation, the Suicide Squad attacks the Force at their own home. Others are killed, including Mayflower's teammate Sparkler. Mayflower is garrotted by Suicide Squad member Ravan.
