    Since there is practical needs about getting additional information from multisite like this post, it might worth to note here of what get_blog_details() is returning. It could save people, who is not familiar with WordPress, the time from trying.

    By default, the get_blog_details() only returns the following details of the site.

    • blogname
    • siteurl
    • post_count
    • home

    If in case, need to get other information such as blog description of one of the sites. May achieve by using

    get_blog_option( $blog_id, 'blogdescription' );

    Reference: get_blog_option()
