There is the "set_over" and "set_under" members of a colormap, and the
plt.colorbar() function takes an "extend='min'" argument to add an extra
color at the beginning of the colorbar. Setting "extendrect=True", the
added color will be rectangular instead of triangular.
Hopefully that helps.
Cheers,
Ben Root
