Some of the large ones are also larger leaved, and they are often less robust than the smaller leaved varieties. Cold wet ground is more of an issue than cold on it's own.
A pic would help if you can manage it. Use the camera icon in the top right hand corner

Can you post a photo, it would help give an idea. Scraping the bark might not give an accurate answer if the plant is newly dead.
Di the leaves go brown then drop off (or stay on) or did they drop off while still green?
