No experience with Florida, but maybe something like one of the Impatiens would do the job - if they are not invasive species down there.

Red salvia (scarlet sage) best if you dead head. Comes back and sometimes self sows in North Central Florida.
Red verbena if you don't have rabbits.
Vinca if you can find the red not rose variety.
Sunpatiens might work but might wilt everyday
Gerber daisies but red is not as reliable or heavy bloomer as the the whites.
