DataFrame.plot returns/accepts one axis when using secondary_y #21592

Code Sample

z = pandas.DataFrame(numpy.random.rand(10,2), columns=['a','b'])
axes1 = z.plot(secondary_y='a')
axes2 = axes1.get_figure().get_axes()
z.plot(secondary_y='b', ax=axes2)

Problem description

axes1 is the left axis, instead of both the left and right axes (like axes2). Also, the last line results in

AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'get_figure'

Expected Output

When secondary_y is not False:

  • axes1 should be a list of both axes.
  • DataFrame.plot() should accept axes2.

Output of pd.show_versions()
