I have a couple of plants, and as I don't have any rock garden and generally try to avoid anything that needs protection against winter wet I'm curious to know if anyone's tried it outside? Is it fuzzy?

Yes, it is said to be hairy. Here is some info and some photos:

I grew it last year but only had basal leaves (which were not especially hairy, however). (I'm waiting to see if it comes back this year.)

Sorry, embarrassing spelling mistake; I ment to ask if they were "fu
ss
y"
I had the same basal leaves as you last season, and they have just started leafing out in the cold bench. Guess I'll just have to risk it and hope for the best, quite a few of the grassland alpines seem to do ok in the garden.
(Edit to fix yet another spelling error.)
