Add x and y labels to a pandas plot

Suppose I have the following code that plots something very simple using pandas:

import pandas as pd
values = [[1, 2], [2, 5]]
df2 = pd.DataFrame(values, columns=['Type A', 'Type B'], 
                   index=['Index 1', 'Index 2'])
df2.plot(lw=2, colormap='jet', marker=".", markersize=10, 
         title="Video streaming dropout by category")

How do I easily set x and y-labels while preserving my ability to use specific colormaps? I noticed that the plot() wrapper for pandas DataFrames doesn’t take any parameters specific for that.
