Unable to map background gradient from numeric column entry to entire row

[IPGreene]

import pandas as pd
import seaborn as sns
data = [['thing', 'T01', 0], ['thing2', 'T02', 5], ['thing3', 'T03', 25], ['thing', 'T01', 2]]
df = pd.DataFrame(data, columns=['Access', 'Access ID', 'Freq'])
cm = sns.light_palette("green", as_cmap=True)
df.style.set_caption('Access').background_gradient(cmap=cm, axis=0)

Currently I'm only able to apply background gradient to the 'freq' column however it would be ideal if it would colour the entire row.
