Default Hedging

Don't know if any can explain a problem I've had with my hedging
I am not a gardening expert by any means so I'll first of all describe the
hedge I have, it is a small green leafed and sometimes has little pink
flowers and a fragrant smell. The problem I have is although the hedges (I
have three) have been growing happily for 30 years or more over the last
three winters they have lost their leaves and looked dead only to come back
to life again in springtime and looking healthy again. Now if they had
always done this I wouldn't worry but they always used to keep their leaves
all year round.
Is this a problem connected to the 'global warming' thing or is it old age
creeping on (the hedge not me!).
When it first happened I was all for chopping down and replacing but the
fact it resurrects itself has saved it so far
Sorry about the vague description I'll photograph and post if it helps.
