Looks like your very close.
I needed to change the months to short English form, change the line
ax3.grid('True') to ax3.grid(True)
and add the line
ax3.axvspan(*mdates.datestr2num(['05/18/2012', '06/30/2012']),
facecolor='g', alpha=0.5)
To get the box on the lower plot.
Hope that help
I want to place a colored vertical range on my plot and came across the
following example:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8270981/in-a-matplotlib-plot-can-i-highlight-specific-x-value-ranges/8271438#8271438
It shows what I am trying to do using axvspan.
However, I was not able to reproduce
You might want to look at the python textwrap module. That can take
your labels and automatically wrap them at a certain column width. See
(in addition to the official python docs)

Sounds like you want to use a FunctionFormatter rather than modifying
the ticks thems
