was he ever a father
Did desert orchid ever have a foal.?
Nope, afraid not. He was castrated as a youngster so could never father any foals.
He had four sisters (that I can find) - Peacework (1984), Tudor Orchid (1985), Irish Orchid (1986) and Indian Orchid (1987). They each went off to stud but never produced anything of note.
That's the way racing goes: you can be a great racehorse and never sire a good horse, or an average racehorse and sire a champion!
