int i =0;
    for (CPTBarPlot *plot in plots) {
        plot.dataSource = self;
        plot.delegate = self;
        plot.barWidth = CPTDecimalFromDouble(CPDBarWidth * 2);
        plot.barOffset = CPTDecimalFromDouble(barX);
        plot.lineStyle = barLineStyle;
        NSString *plotname = [plottiltes objectAtIndex:i];
        plot.title = plotname;
        NSLog(@"%@",plotname);
        i++;
        [graph addPlot:plot toPlotSpace:graph.defaultPlotSpace];

The title property is the description of the plot that shows up in the legend. Use data labels to label the bars. If the values that you're displaying aren't the plotted values, you'll need to use custom data labels. Implement the following datasource method and make custom labels. You can use a CPTTextLayer to display a text string or any other CPTLayer if you need to get fancy.

-(CPTLayer *)dataLabelForPlot:(CPTPlot *)plot recordIndex:(NSUInteger)index;
