Do Echeveria mind getting their leaves wet?

I've bought six "Black Prince" echeveria for a sunny windowsill in my kitchen.

Do they mind getting their leaves wet when you water them? I'm an avid gardener with new L plates for growing cacti, so I'm not sure what things they might be fussy about.

And any other general advice about these plants would be gratefully received - thanks!

I grow mine outside under overhead sprays
When they flower break the stems off snap in half and plant them after a few weeks you have new plants
If you need any help email me I have lot's of different succulents

Thanks Bev. I just wanted to be sure they weren't temperamental, like African violets or something. I didn't think so - thank goodness! And the free plants are a bonus!
