Having these perennial plants on which a beautiful flower bloom for more than 15 days. Like to know name of these plants which look like Edgeworth Rhododendron, as observed from web site of Flowers of India).

Rhododendron simsii ?  

seems to be a variety of Azalea indica. the pink var, i used to have in my balcony like Azalea Indica 'inga' 
the red one may be azalea indica 'nellie' or some such the name nellie or prize pops up in Australia. i am not sure what it is in Indian nursery trade.
Question: how long have had them?
