Default Landscape roses

What are the best roses to choose considering the following information?
Zone 9B, full sun, in a raised bed situation. I want a fragrant, dark
red rose that can handle Florida's hot, humid conditions. This bed has 2
birdfeeders and a birdbath. It will be planted with a white rose,
several annuals such as "Blue Daze", red and white zinnias, all ringed
with different height and color sunflowers. I only need the two red
roses to complete the plant list. Mr Lincoln seemed to fit the bill, but
I am having no luck locating them. My local nurseries do not have what I
want.
Any suggestions and/or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Bill
