Display Stack label Highcharts - highcharts

Question

Im using the stacked charts from Highcharts but would like to include the stack name below the stacked bar charts.
http://jsfiddle.net/gh/get/jquery/1.9.1/highslide-software/highcharts.com/tree/master/samples/highcharts/demo/column-stacked-and-grouped/
js
$(function () {
$('#container').highcharts({
chart: {
type: 'column'
},
title: {
text: 'Total fruit consumtion, grouped by gender'
},
xAxis: {
categories: ['Apples', 'Oranges', 'Pears', 'Grapes', 'Bananas']
},
yAxis: {
allowDecimals: false,
min: 0,
title: {
text: 'Number of fruits'
}
},
tooltip: {
formatter: function () {
return '<b>' + this.x + '</b><br/>' +
this.series.name + ': ' + this.y + '<br/>' +
'Total: ' + this.point.stackTotal;
}
},
plotOptions: {
column: {
stacking: 'normal'
}
},
series: [{
name: 'John',
data: [5, 3, 4, 7, 2],
stack: 'male'
}, {
name: 'Joe',
data: [3, 4, 4, 2, 5],
stack: 'male'
}, {
name: 'Jane',
data: [2, 5, 6, 2, 1],
stack: 'female'
}, {
name: 'Janet',
data: [3, 0, 4, 4, 3],
stack: 'female'
}]
});
});
Iin this chart, I want to show 'MALE' & 'FEMALE' below the stack.
How can I do it using Highcharts
Something like below..Where you display the stack name - "Maintenance", "other" and "peak"

I think that in your case you may use grouped-categories plugin. You may find this plugin on a Highcharts plugins repository:
http://www.highcharts.com/plugin-registry/single/11/Grouped-Categories
$(function() {
var chart = new Highcharts.Chart({
chart: {
renderTo: "container",
type: "column",
},
plotOptions: {
series: {
stacking: 'normal'
}
},
series: [{
data: [4, 14, 18, 5, 6, 5]
}, {
data: [4, 14, 18, 5, 6, 5]
}, {
data: [4, 14, 18, 5, 6, 5]
}],
xAxis: {
categories: [{
name: "Fruit",
categories: ["Apple", "Banana"]
}, {
name: "Vegetable",
categories: ["Carrot", "Potato"]
}, {
name: "Fish",
categories: ["Cod", "Salmon"]
}]
}
});
});
And here you can find simple example how your chart may work with this plugin: http://jsfiddle.net/TFhd7/943/
