The order will still be the same if you use the same pot.

The dulcia only takes two and a half days to be ready for harvest in order to attract elephants. So...you have two options really. You could remove the dulcia that you have and replant after the skunk topiary is done...and then let your bush mature naturally...do not dust it. Or...you could see if the donkeys overpower the skunks. You might be lucky and get enough skunks through even with the dulcia...but...I would remove one of the dulcia to reduce the attracting power.

Your dulcia are only a day and a half until RTH.  Same goes for the shroom.

You still have nearly 5 days on your current top and you've gotten your trim.

So...even if you are inundated with donkeys for the next day and a half, a few top skunks will probably by, and once the dulcias and shroom are RTH and still have 3 1/2 days to complete the skunk tops.

Plant a different mushroom after the shroom, finish up the top skunks, then a new shroom when you are ready for the elephants. 

At least, that's what I would do.  It's a crapshoot, but much better than starting over!

But...whatever you choose to do...I would rip out the rosa so that regular skunks do not complicate things.

Yes, I would as well!  That's one thing I dislike about the tops...ripping out the plants...but really, it makes it much, much easier. 
I say this but I still have not finished them, LOL!  Getting closer, but am playing around with dinos now for the free superfood to help me finish the topiary trails. 
Good luck, Richina!
