title: Can I add y-axis labels on a horizontal barchart using pandas?
body: <p>I'm using the <code>pandas</code> wrapper around matplotlib to create a horizontal barchart and would like to add labels to the y-axis.</p>
  
  <p>Sadly it doesn't seem to be as simple as just adding a <code>labels=df['Labels']</code> parameter as we can with pie charts.</p>
  
  <pre><code>import pandas
  import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
  
  data = [['A', 1, 2], ['B', 2, 3], ['C', 3, 4]]
  df = pandas.DataFrame(data, columns=['Label', 'Col1', 'Col2'])
  df.plot(kind='barh')
  plt.show()
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is this possible in <code>pandas</code> alone or am I going to have to move into <code>matplotlib</code>?</p>
