Enclosing Multiple Subplots in a Box

I have a subplot that looks as follows:
+-+-+-+-+
|A|A|B|B|
+-+-+-+-+
|A|A|B|B|
+-+-+-+-+
|C|D|E|F|
+-+-+-+-+
I want to enclose plots A,C,D and B,E,F in boxes (to show these plots are "grouped" together).
How do I do this (using commands -- not using the plotting window)? thanks!

In the figure window, click "Insert", "Rectangle".
Or
% Create figure
figure1 = figure;
% Create subplot
subplot(4,4,1,'Parent',figure1);
% Create subplot
subplot(4,4,16,'Parent',figure1);
% Create rectangle
annotation(figure1,'rectangle',...
