I am looking for a cultivar of raspberry that is hardy in zone 9?

So far, all I have been able to find that are hardy in that zone are the gold ones. Goldies are fine but I want some reds too. Any one know of a good cultivar for my region?????

    You can try Dorman Red, which should work in most of Florida. Click on the variety names on the link below, the hardiness zones for each variety are listed near the bottom of each page. You are not concerned with cold hardiness so much in zone 9, but getting enough chilling to break dormancy.
