How do you update the legend of Figure 2 and Figure 3 instead of Figure 1?

Need:
Figure 1 should have red circle data points called "Iris Data (red)" with correct legend.
Figure 2 should have blue circle data points called "Synthetic Iris Data (blue)" with correct legend.
Figure 3 should be a combination of both graphs with correct legend.
(Iris.xls data set is attached)
Here is my erroneous code that displays the wrong legends:
%% The column vector, |species|, consists of iris flowers of three
% different species, setosa, versicolor, virginica. The double matrix
% |features| consists of four types of measurements on the flowers, the length
% and width of sepals and petals in centimeters, respectively.
features = xlsread("iris.xls", 2); %sepal length, sepal width, petal length, petal width
labels = xlsread("iris.xls", 3); % flower type classes
species = cell(size(labels));
species(labels==1)={'Setosa'};
species(labels==2)={'Versicolor'};
species(labels==3)={'Virginica'};
% The names of features are stored in an array.
feature_names = ["Sepal Length", "Sepal Width", "Petal Length", "Petal Width"];
%% Features
% Use petal length (third column in |features| ) and petal width (fourth column
% in |features| ) measurements. Save these as variables PL and PW,
% respectively.

When using the set function for Figure 2 and Figure 3,I had accidentally kept referring to the same plot name for Figure 1. Here is my corrected code.
%% The column vector, |species|, consists of iris flowers of three
% different species, setosa, versicolor, virginica. The double matrix
% |features| consists of four types of measurements on the flowers, the length
% and width of sepals and petals in centimeters, respectively.
features = xlsread("iris.xls", 2); %sepal length, sepal width, petal length, petal width
labels = xlsread("iris.xls", 3); % flower type classes
species = cell(size(labels));
species(labels==1)={'Setosa'};
species(labels==2)={'Versicolor'};
species(labels==3)={'Virginica'};
% The names of features are stored in an array.
feature_names = ["Sepal Length", "Sepal Width", "Petal Length", "Petal Width"];

I have always used the legend function in the following way:
legend('nameOfGraphOne','nameOfGraphTwo',etc);
I see you are implementing a legend in the same line as the plot. I believe if you eliminate that and insert a legend using the legend function, it should work.

No you don't need to. Here is some example code that I used for a plot for a class project.
figure(1);
hold on
plot(data_time,data_hour,"r-");
plot(data_time2,data_hour2,'r--');
xlabel('time(s)');
ylabel('light intensity in DANA 303');
hold off
ylim([0 10000]);
title('light intensity vs time (s) in DANA 303');
legend('Marios Sensor','Devins Sensor')
