Description
Making a boxplot of a DataFrame does not seem to skip datetime64 columns, as you get the following error (it tries to calculate the mean of the datetime64 values):
In [4]: df = pd.DataFrame({'a': pd.date_range("2012-01-01", periods=100), 'b': np.random.randn(100), 'c': np.random.randn(100)+2})
In [6]: df.plot(kind='box')
...
TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for +: 'Timestamp' and 'Timestamp'
While when this would be a string column, it would be correctly skipped.
This seems to be a regression, as at least in pandas 0.20.3 this worked.
