MATLAB: How to plot two graphs

datetickplot

I have two matrices to plot
A=[1  1.2   
   3  2.3
   7  3.2
   8   3 ]
and
B=[2  3.2
   4  4.5
   5  7
   6  0 ]
I want to create a plot
plot(A(:,1),A(:,2),'r');
hold on
plot(B(:,1),B(:,2),'b');
but instead of x it should be month. Any suggestion would be appreciated in advance.

One approach that will use local month names:
A=[1  1.2   
   3  2.3
   7  3.2
   8   3 ]
B=[2  3.2
   4  4.5
   5  7
   6  0 ]
dn = datenum([repmat(2016, size(A,1)+size(B,1), 1)  [A(:,1); B(:,1)], ones(size(A,1)+size(B,1), 1)]);   % Create Date Numbers From Months
plot(dn(1:size(A,1)) ,A(:,2),'r');
hold on
plot(dn(size(A,1)+1:end),B(:,2),'b');
datetick('x', 'mmm')
