Pandas version checks

  • [X] I have checked that this issue has not already been reported.

  • [ ] I have confirmed this bug exists on the latest version of pandas.

  • [ ] I have confirmed this bug exists on the main branch of pandas.

Reproducible Example

import pandas as pd

chunk = pd.DataFrame(index=[0, 1, 2])

df = pd.concat([chunk.assign(y=i, i=i) for i in range(3)])

df.groupby("i")["y"].plot(legend=True, cmap="tab20");

Issue Description

The above code snippet demonstrates that cmap="tab20" is not respected. The parameter is respected in DataFrame.plot, which can be checked by viewing

df.plot(cmap="tab20")

Expected Behavior

The cmap parameter should be correctly handled
