Default Starting cuttings

My coleus cuttings are not rooting. I put one cutting, dusted with
rooting hormone, in a cup of moist vermiculite, covered in a plastic
bag and placed in a north window. They may get a brief time of morning
sun. The temperature is about 65 degrees. The cuttings are not
wilted, but have produced small flowers which I pinched off. Why are
the cuttings flowering and not rooting?
