For example:
plot(1, 1, xlab="Time", ylab="Vegetation Class",
xlim=c(100, 600), ylim=c(200, 300), type="n")
xrange <- par("usr")[1:2]
polygon(c(xrange, rev(xrange)), c(200, 200, 204, 204),
col=rgb(250, 250, 0, 50, maxColorValue=255), border=NA)
polygon(c(xrange, rev(xrange)), c(210, 210, 212, 212),
col=rgb(250, 125, 0, 50, maxColorValue=255), border=NA)
points(10*(20:30), 10*(20:30))
