You mention it is a cutting, when did you take the cutting and planted it? If it was not that long ago it may not have developed (m)any roots yet. The flower could just be produced from the stored resources and thus indeed be the main cause for the slow withering of the plant.

I took the cutting mid-November, it rooted (in water) about a week later, I then potted it, and it has firmly resisted my pulling on it since December. I am very curious about what the roots look like now, and I'm confident it has been established, but I'll probably pull it out and check once the bloom dies back as to not disrupt it.
