Like you I have decided to do my training in the UK.

21 days is unlikely to complete your PPL in any school in Florida due to either the shortage of CFI's or AC's going Tech.

If you do manage to get the JAA PPL done out there the standard isn't as good, a bad thing if you're looking to 'go all the way' as it'll give you bad habits.

In my eyes it seems beneficial to me to do my PPL at a school I'd be looking to do my CPL/MEP/IR. If Florida still looks appealing after gaining my PPL/Night/IMC maybe I'll spend a week at a school while on holiday and do some hour building or an aerobatics course.

You'll find 16 pages on OFT here:

Good luck.
