title: plotting timeseries of different years in a single plot for comparison and limiting sticks using Seaborn
body: <p>I have data that stretches 4 years in 5 minute resolution. I need to compare data in a single plot. I am using Seaborn package for plotting. I cannot plot with the data as-is because it will make the plot a four year time series plot. I converted the "Time Stamp" data to contain only day month and time using :</p>
  
  <pre><code>df_2018['no_year_dt'] = df_2018['Time Stamp'].dt.strftime('%m/%d %H:%M:%S')
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but the resulting column datatype is 'object' and not a 'datetime' format. Plotting using 'no_year_dt' column will result in all datapoints in x-axis ticks. (not readable)</p>
  
  <p>I want the resulting plot to have limited x-ticks, say only the date like '1-1' '1-2' if I am plotting one months worth data.  </p>
